yeah strawmaning is indeed a very mature approach to political discussions. the top 1% in US aid 45% of taxes. Do you want to reduce their tax burden when you mention "income-based taxation"?

Sounds like whoever came up with that idea is a complete nut job

Can you imagine how horrible a country the USA would have been if people could actually afford their lives and had access to a working healthcare system? Everybody knows that's the outer circle of hell right there.

Yeah! Equal opportunity, universal healthcare, renewable energy, income-based taxation, redistribution of wealth. Thank god those ideas didn't stick.

in some sense you could say that Democratic party has been more successful as it managed to keep its nutjob faction of Bernie and Elizabeth Warren out. Same cannot be said about GOP
