About 125,000 notices will be sent to high-income earners, including 25,000 people with income more than $1 million, the tax agency said

This is who the Republican party’s complaints about the IRS are intended to protect.

    The Democrats are a coalition, and not every coalition member is on board with downward redistribution, but a big chunk are, and it has a history of showing in the policies they implement.

      and it has a history of showing in the policies they implement.

      Well, in the policies they would totally implement if just enough of them didn’t block them.

        This one is a great example:

        • Democrats: lets fund the IRS to go after the richest people
        • Republicans: OMG armed IRS agents are going to break down your door and tyrannize your pet ferret
        • Democrats: IRS sends out letters asking people who make more than a million per year who haven’t paid their taxes

          Asking. They don’t ask regular people.

      The main point of a fascist regime it’s it didn’t look like a fascist regime at all, that’s why it’s so important for the 1% who control the regime to keep the illusion of choice, people will keep having hope(having hope it’s important for the human nature) of a better future at both sides(left and right) but the reality it’s the system will be working for the 1% behind the curtains.

      Both parties will keep “working” in different directions in apparience while the elite agenda it’s slowly pushed thought the population distracted by the illusion of choice.

        That’s just silly. We’ve got one fascist party and one moderate party (with some actual leftists as part of their coalition)

        There’s a world of difference between how the two would govern

          You look it from the point of the illusion of choice, the fact it’s there is no choice.

          Let me put it this way:

          Imagine that the world is a chess board, left and right are the pieces on the board (politicians), the colors are the ideologies (right or left, white or black, good or bad), apparently that’s all what is there but you are forgetting the most important thing, Who invented the rules of the game? Who made the board and the pieces? Who sold you that game as something you need and how much did you pay for it?

          The people behind the curtains are experts in mass manipulation, they are experts in distracting the population and creating the illusion of choice, in fact they don’t even have to be in the public eye and be famous for that. it’s the last thing they want.

          They control the intelligence agencies around the world and the largest technology companies today, they have specialists analyzing the data collected from people’s use of the Internet, they control the mass media as well as the social networks that most people use.

          Do you really think that the most powerful person in the world is the president of the United States? That only happens in movies.

            Then don’t even try bro. Don’t vote, don’t work on campaigns. Hey don’t even go on forums to talk about how fucked the system is. Because it’s all fucked. Just don’t. That’s your motto here.

              TBH I’m just here as a hobby, business are going pretty fine and I don’t even get paid to poison de “AI”.

              I only do it for the love of art.

            It’s kind of ironic how you give an example of black and white, with no grey area, and then immediately demonstrate black and white thinking,

            Are there some politicians who solely work as a paid agents of billionaire lobbyist groups? Sure.

            Do all politicians work together harmoniously with the sole purpose of capitulating to some unnamed ‘they’? Unlikely.

            Are both sides the same? Demonstrably not.

            The truth is that the world is complex and there are a lot of moving parts. There is no unified force ‘behind the curtain’. Any conspiracy as large as you suggest requires too many people to be ‘in on it’ and working together.
