Joe Biden is a heavy favorite to be the next President, yet the media have barely paid attention to what he will do if he wins. We’ll try to fill that knowledge gap in the coming weeks, and a good place to start is his proposal for tax increases of more than $3 trillion over a decade. Let’s examine the unfine print:
• Individual incomes: Raise the top marginal rate to 39.6%, from 37%. Repeal the $10,000 cap on the deduction for state-and-local taxes, giving a bigger break to places like San Francisco and New York. But limit...
opinion All of a sudden you're worried about the deficit. Looks like another Democrat has to clean the crap the republicans left behind. Day one the republicans will start crying about deficit.
opinion Good - everyone should pay their fair share
opinion Of course the socialist has
opinion Democrats hate the working
opinion Taxes ARE inevitable. Biden wants to raise taxes on the rich. Newsflash WSJ ... so do MOST Americans! The gravy-train needs to end. BTW ... The first Republican President gave us Income Taxes, back in 1861. No one ever said that Abraham Lincoln had a bad idea!
opinion Let’s see Trump’s FULL taxes.
opinion We need to tax a reasonable amount to pay for services we want. Time to grow up!
opinion Joes ill
opinion
opinion B.O. regulation czar, Cass R. Sunstein co-wrote NUDGE which lays out exactly how Biden will handle the economy and shape American economics. Through gov't manipulation and coercion!
opinion “Ah! New taxes!” Someone screams in America as the police kidnap people, a deadly virus ravages the world and our foreign enemies grow bolder
opinion Looks like all that sweet, sweet, taxpayer funded gravy is coming to an end for y'all. I can't seem to find it in me to shed a tear for you.
opinion You continue to post columns about how Biden would raise taxes as if that’s a bad thing. Taxes have been unnecessarily cut. Our deficit has never been worse and is only getting deeper with the COVID stimulus. So how the fuck does anyone expect us to to pay for it?
opinion Have you looked at the deficit? I know that's tough research
opinion Well got to pay the debt back no such thing as a free lunch
opinion WTF!!! Look at this man Biden ...he is at the end of his tether. Is he supposed to lead US to the next glory !!!!!!!! Guys be very careful on whom u r putting ur money & future of US.
opinion Not surprised! Without raising taxes how can he pay for all the “free stuff” he is offering.
opinion This is fine. If it pisses off wsj (30 a month to subscribe? fuck off), it's probably good. People hate paying taxes but loving having roads to drive on. What we need is just much better transparency and to stop paying corporations with our tax dollars :)
opinion People agree on more taxes when they don't get taxed themselves, once we tax the wealthy out of existence as the democrats want, then it will be the turn of the next ones down, until it will reach everyone except the welfare recipients, try for once to cut spending
opinion Tax the rich is Democrats code word to sock it to the middle class AGAIN. Rich and poor don't pay taxes - guess who does and can't do anything but pay. Yep us middle classers.
opinion No kidding. GO home Joe. GO PRESIDENT TRUMP.
opinion Too small, says progressives
opinion Hard to square with the UBS view.
opinion That's fine with me. We need more jobs.
opinion Don't care... BidenWarren2020
opinion a socialist increasing taxes. Whonwould have thought?!?!?
opinion tax hard those top 1% individuals and spare the rest of country please.
opinion You supported Trump's budget busting tax cuts in 2017. It's time for the Opinion page to take a seat over there in the corner.
opinion Great proposal. Trump removing SALT deduction was a tax increase, top marginal rate only applies for people with astronomical income, and the rich DO need to start paying into social security and medicare. Ridiculous that the whole program is funded by the middle class.
opinion We have cut taxes for decades. When did you think this would happen?
opinion Whose skirt is the corrupted dumbmocrat Biden is he going to hide under
opinion Biden: More taxes. More regulations. More censorship. More crime. More flag burning. More political violence. More cities destroyed. More illegal immigration. More abortion. More identity politics. More racial division. More leftist indoctrination of children.
opinion Someone has to pay for the brutal debt that Trump has stacked up. You either tax the wealthy today or leave it for your own children later. Not a hard choice If you have a sense of morality.
opinion I thought it was 7 trillion?
opinion Pretty one sided writing
opinion Don’t worry, you can take most or all back with another 2 trillion dollar tax break for the rich.
opinion And god!!! Joe expects the wealthy to pay...he wants to close your god given loopholes!!!! And OMG, he wants to help the peasants!!! He must be stopped!!!!!
opinion Boggles the mind that anyone would vote themselves tax increases.
opinion Tax, tax, tax. And spend.........
opinion How about cut the fat spending?
opinion It is needed to mitigate the failing economy, and those who benefited most from the previous tax cuts should bear most of the cost.
opinion
opinion Yet another reason he will never make it to the Oval Office. Like we needed another reason 😝
opinion I'm in complete agreement, but minimum wages is the answer
opinion Good 1% robbed money back in the coffers
opinion Especially since Trump defunded the postal service
opinion . Joe Biden is a curse of America. Joe Biden would bury America. Joe Biden would kill millions of American jobs. Joe Biden would destroy our healthy economy. . You vote Biden, you vote death . You vote Biden, you vote unemployment. .
opinion 'Tax the rich' is a pretty safe position in a general election. He's not running in a Republican primary, GOP donors are not his target audience.
opinion Also known as one quarter of Trump’s deficit spending
opinion It is chicken feed and will not even pay for the $ 3.5 Trillion in relief package, let alone the additional $4.5 trillion deficit the Trump administration created in the last 3 years by giving tax breaks to the rich.
opinion I am for that. Those old scare tactics won't be working anymore.
opinion On the type of people that read and obsess over the WSJ. Not normal Americans. There’s your fine print.
opinion Vote for Biden and give much, much more of your paycheck to congress. I’m sure they won’t waste it. Look at the VA, EDD, DMV - all well-oiled machines.
opinion A Biden presidency would be tragic for our families.
opinion I don't care. I will pay an arm and a leg to remove Trump and his enablers from office. You can't scare me with taxes. Good try though.
opinion so ? why don’t you opine on the ongoing demolition of the country by the GOP con machine ?
opinion Hmm
opinion Big Blue Government....Tax and Spend....or really Spend...then Tax ...🧤🧤
opinion You mean the ppl getting rich off others' labor will suffer a slight change in the imaginary number they attach to themselves so that millions of people can access a decent existence? THE HORROR!
opinion Silver Alert for a Joseph Biden. Last seen inappropriately close to children
opinion How many years & Presidents does it take to get things right. Healthcare, education, etc.... it’s all about $$ & control....
opinion
opinion Seriously you think taxes would not have to increase under any other president after the disaster Trump has created?
opinion Rich will not be paying more taxes because they will leave the country and change their citizenships
opinion Good. No more tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy. Lower taxes for the lower/middle class. I mean it’s common sense and it works. If I make $10 billion and I get taxed at 60%, that’s still $4 billion taken home. It just makes sense.
opinion Who created debt?
opinion If u dont realize higher taxes are coming u are mentally challenged.
opinion Tax the wealthy tax big businesses...
opinion Could intelligent people vote for Biden? More taxes, more unemployed.
opinion Yeah. Good. We’re not pandering to you freeloaders anymore. No more handouts. Sound inappropriate? Imagine being in crushing poverty and being talked to that way.
opinion I really like his plan. Biden2020
opinion Right...
opinion All for it as long as we decrease spending to go with it.
JoelCRosenberg opinion Socialist, Joe....
opinion I’ll take that over fascism, bigotry, and disregard for human life ever single time!
opinion Let us see what tax cuts got us...
opinion Why have taxes? Can’t we just keep printing money? We are just starting to get really good at it!
opinion It’s going to take a lot more than $3T to dig us out of trump’s hole in a green, sustainable manner.
opinion A pic of Biden to make a clear point
opinion The WSJ should NEVER AGAIN complain about a democrat raising taxes!!!!!! We have lived through a fantasy universe with Trump spending money like he has it, while cutting normal goods and services! Go back and sit in the corner!
opinion Yup biden and his socialist agenda straight out of Sanders communist manifesto. Here comes big govt to save us all from ourselves and add a $3T tax burden on all American citizens
opinion Here we go. Preview of coming attractions if he wins.
opinion He wants rich people to pay their fair share.
opinion Yea but at least all the systematic racism will be gone, right?
opinion This is nessissory to overcome new supporting measures to poor people
opinion Ohhh you mean trying to reduce the deficit and balance the budget
opinion
opinion GOOD. It's about time.
opinion WSJ stop crying. The Repub Money Party is rolling full force. How much PPP did you take?
opinion Trump and the GOP pissed all the money away and gave it to the wealthy. Taxes need to increase if there is to be a future United States. TrumpFailedAmerica
opinion Finally! Reinstate the big tax cut Trump gave his “friends”, (using quotes because I can’t believe he actually has any). We need taxes to pay for our fire departments, our infrastructure, etc. A small price to pay to live in this Country that Joe will get back on track!
opinion Well that seems reasonable. What do people expect you can't have everything perfect so you might as face it now.
opinion I don't mind higher taxes if we get to leave crazy town and we get someone that takes advice and cares about the future and not just about themselves.
opinion Tax the wealthy tax the corporations tax the damn churches
opinion GOOD.
opinion Tax the RICH...Not the working class. Biden has NO vision and NOTHING good will occur during his term. Amerika will get what they deserve with either Biden or Trump!
opinion Your point is? Who has ballooned the deficit? Republicans. The piper needs to be paid eventually.
opinion OMG are you kidding me and this is a problem? The top 10% of the most wealthy pay no taxes! Basic math, no surprise. Not a bad thing, focused on top 10%
opinion In the old days of the Grand Old Party and the conservative WSJ the debt and running deficit would be tragic. How is it fine now Not making any rational sense
opinion Good. Tax the rich. They can afford it and it’s long past time they paid their fair share.
opinion As long as all of it is on the top 5% of earners and the richest corporations.
opinion I am not sure why the rich get penalized for paying more taxes because they actually worked hard for their monly. Unlike these lazy pieces of commenting about how wonderful it is that dementia Joe wants to do this.
opinion Biden is proud of the fact that he says he is raising our taxes !!!!!
opinion And of Republicans hadn't put down all their chips on an incompetent blowhard that might have been an effective attack line
opinion GOP Propaganda platforms going to start screaming about the deficit in 3, 2, ....
opinion I’m sure Wall Street loves him
opinion Wont history show that Republicans cut taxes on the rich which Democrats always have to reinstate for economic reasons?
opinion The Trump deficit is likely to be over $4 TRILLION this year. Does any reasonable economist believe Trump’s tax cuts are sustainable?
opinion Is there any other choice left?
opinion yikes, please reconsider Joe.
opinion Lol
opinion I’m sure you rediscover your fiscal “discipline” on 01/21/2021
opinion Find out what happens when people stop being polite and start getting real
opinion Considering the fact that we’re servicing roughly $20 Trillion of debt, $3 Trillion seems too low.
opinion Joe Biden is teaming up with Bernie Sanders to raise taxes.
opinion How much did the deficit balloon under Trump again?
opinion Trump already raised the national debt more than that. Republicans having fiscal responsibility is nothing but a dirty joke.
opinion And we haven’t even started paying for COVID relief yet
opinion Under Trump, we racked up Trillions of debt. Tax cuts aren’t going to get us out if this mess. No matter who wins... taxes are going up.
opinion ZimbabweanLivesMatter ZimbabweanLivesMatter ZimbabweanLivesMatter ZimbabweanLivesMatter ZimbabweanLivesMatter
opinion Here we go...🙄
