Axios: Corporate Democrats Are Settling On 25% Corporate Tax Rate
Occidental Dissent - Apr 19th 2021 11:29am EDTThis is a joke. Axios: “The universe of Democratic senators concerned about raising the corporate tax rate to 28% is broader than Sen. Joe Manchin, and the rate will likely land at 25%, parties close to the discussion tell Axios. … The big picture: The White House hasn’t publicly backed away from the president’s proposed 28% […]
Rising: Taxing The Rich Is Overwhelmingly Popular
Occidental Dissent - Apr 16th 2021 12:41pm EDTThe GOP doesn’t seem to realize this. Woke Capital is a big opportunity for them to dump a major albatross.

The […]

Joe Manchin: I Will Not Vote To Eliminate Or Weaken The Filibuster
Occidental Dissent - Apr 8th 2021 5:02pm EDTNothing is going to fundamentally change. Washington Post: “When Americans vote to send their two senators to Washington, they trust that they will work to represent the interests of their state on equal footing with 98 other senators. I have always said, “If I can’t go home and explain it, I can’t vote for it.” […]
Rising: Jeff Bezos Backs Corporate Tax Hike
Occidental Dissent - Apr 7th 2021 5:59pm EDTThis is a good discussion. Amazon isn’t even paying the official 21% corporate tax rate because of all the tax loopholes. Raising the corporate tax rate to 25% which is what the Corporate Democrats want to do isn’t going to change anything. Progressives are happy to spend trillions of dollars to build infrastructure. They are […]

Formalizing Democracy
Amerika.org - Apr 7th 2021 8:02am EDTDuring the days of Neoreaction, which came after the initial 1990s rejection of the Enlightenment™ and its primary idea of individualism replacing social order through equality, some suggested formalizing democracy.

Rising: Will Progressives Or Corporate Democrats Prevail On The Corporate Tax Rate?
Occidental Dissent - Apr 6th 2021 4:07pm EDTWill Joe Manchin and the Corporate Democrats hold the line for private equity on raising the corporate tax rate in the infrastructure bill?

Jacobin: Joe Manchin Wants To Keep the Corporate Tax Rate As Low As Possible
Occidental Dissent - Apr 6th 2021 10:36am EDTSomehow, I just knew that David Sirota would have something to say about this, especially after what happened with the $15 minimum wage.

Occidental Dissent - Apr 2nd 2021 7:07pm EDTWhat exactly is this thing? Reuters: “Only 45% of Americans said they would support a jobs and infrastructure plan that was “recently released by the Biden administration.” Another 27% said they were opposed and the remaining 28% said they were not sure.

The Week: Biden Slams The Door Shut On Reaganism
Occidental Dissent - Apr 2nd 2021 11:30am EDTDamon Linker makes some solid points in this article. I think he is a bit biased here though.

Poll: Americans Support Raising Taxes On The Wealthy and Corporations To Fund Infrastructure Spending
Occidental Dissent - Apr 1st 2021 1:59pm EDTI’m shocked to learn this. Independents are strongly opposed to Joe Biden’s immigration policies, but support him on how he is handling COVID, the American Rescue Plan and on raising taxes on the wealthy and corporations to build infrastructure. It is almost like Trump would have been reelected if 1.) he hadn’t made a fool […]
Jacobin: The Right Wing Of The Democratic Party Is Playing Hardball. The Left Wing Is Not
Occidental Dissent - Mar 31st 2021 1:52pm EDTWhen I saw the news about Joe’s plan on the SALT deduction, the wealth tax, the carried interest loophole, preserving Trump’s tax cuts for the wealthy and redefining the middle class to under $400,000 households (all of this being a transparent effort to pander to the True Cons or Red Dogs who switched parties because […]
Axios: Changes To Capital Gains Taxes Omitted From Biden’s Infrastructure Plan
Occidental Dissent - Mar 31st 2021 1:03pm EDTBOOM! This is the realignment in action. Axios: “The carried interest loophole is beginning to look immortal.
