    1. Does he not also calculate that we need to also tax those wages at 100% to make the math work?

    2. How about we tax the rich?

      > Dr. Oz Net Worth and Talk Show Pay Revealed in Senate …
      As of early 2025, Dr. Mehmet Oz’s net worth is estimated to be between approximately $90 million and $335 million, largely driven by his successful television career, investments, and his wife’s family’s wealth. His financial disclosures during his 2022 Senate run and 2025 nomination to lead CMS revealed extensive assets, including stock holdings in health, pharmaceutical, and technology sectors.

      It is not your money. It is ours. We contributed money every paycheck. Not yours, Dr.

      “Would” if we didn’t hoard all of the profits and send it off to offshore banks accounts, never to be seen again. Got to keep those peasants in perpetual debt.

      Where is the missing fourth frame where he says “But we will give the rich a gratuitous tax break instead”

      “–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, –That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.”

    7. Yes, it’s the average American who should pay for the misjudgments of political leaders and the oligarch class.

    8. But let’s also not do anything to make Healthcare affordable, which could actually result in folks living and deciding to work longer. These people are so out of touch. Retirement isn’t something most Americans just chose to do when they feel like it. They either: get too sick to work, work until they die, or die poor because they thought they could retire

    9. Yeahh.. my country is upping the retirement age to 70. Insanity. And cuts in healthcare, as is tradition.

    10. OR MAYBE WE DON’T GIVE OVER $3 TRILLION TO THE ELITE RICH??

      WHY TF DO BILLIONAIRES KEEP GETTING REPUBLICAN HANDOUTS? I THOUGHT GOVERNMENT ASSISTANCE WAS TO BE FROWNED UPON. OR DOES THAT ONLY COUNT FOR POOR PEOPLE?

    11. The suggestion that it’s the average American’s fault that there is national debt is incredibly insulting. Especially given that this assholes pedo/grafting/grafting boss has swollen the debt like no other “in the history of our country”. Assholes.
