Jesus. Republicans will tax anything and anyone except rich people and rich people accessories.
Technically, we already do pay more in taxes because we don’t get to claim dependents or receive any child tax credits.
If those temporarily embarrassed millionaires could read, they’d be really upset
Lol, on theme and true. Well done.

lemmy.world had a momentary glitch it looked like. It is showing now I think
Yeah was getting a cloudflare error for 2-3 minutes. Seems good now.
They really want that “trickle down” to work. Remember, Putin is still holding Trump’s piss tapes. They’re all absolutely fascinated by pissing on people.
Reading the article he also said that parents should be able to cast votes on behalf of their minor children, which is much more alarming to me.
Let me guess, conservatives have larger families than liberals and progressives?
Educated families have fewer children, I’ll let you connect the rest of the dot.
LGBTQ+ people have a higher rate of living singly or in a relationship without children. No doubt also a tendency to vote Democrat. Conservative, anti-abortion Christians have some of the largest families, so get more votes. It’s pretty clear what he’s up to.
I know a few that can field a full baseball team. I have no idea how they go anywhere together as a full family.
These days, look for any family in America with 5 or more minor children and find a “devout Christian” as the patriarch.
Mormons are famous for this, and they support their breeder mentality by tapping into the same government resources they say they despise, sometimes venturing into fraud.
And frozen eggs are children, right?
Yikes.
Because people who use the least civic resources should pay the most?
Tbf children are a super valuable thing to a country.
It’s why governments freak when birth rates get low.
The machine needs bodies to function after all.
They’ll go so far as to do anything except any of the things that make happy, productive people more likely to feel inclined or comfortable having children.
Parental leave so people can be there when their child is born? Affordable or accessible daycare? A world that accommodates any workplace flexibility? Basic affordable healthcare? A world with some degree of optimism for the state they’re bringing their children into?
Nah, a once a year tax rebate covering a month or two of daycare should be more than enough.
Sure, but incentivizing having kids is different than screwing over the people who don’t.
JD Vance has never argued for higher tax rates on couch fuckers. Coincidence?
What in the fuck is with this guy? He’s got some kink towards punishing people without kids, or what?
It’s self-hate for being a closeted sofasexual.
Alright I’ve seen a lot of people call this guy a couch fucker, what’s going on?
My question, what about thise that have had miscarriages, stillborn, children that have died before 18? Since according to them, life begins at conception, do they not count? Or only children that can contribute to the labor force or military service count?
And what an ass he is.
Nobody counts but him and his lifestyle, apparently. If you’re not doing what he’s doing, go fuck yourself.
I honestly just think he realized too late that he got suckered into a lifestyle he just fucking hates, so his jealousy turns to people living the life he wants, so he’s out to make them as miserable as he is.
God damn lol.
Trump never had this douche-canoe vetted, and it shows with horrible clip after horrible clip just pouring out.
I feel for the Harris campaign staffers who have to listen to hours apon hours of his podcast horror shows, but they are doing the lords work. This stuff is campaign gold.
Or he did. It the people vetting him (including Trump) like is entirely unamerican ideas.
What’s hilarious we already pay more in taxes anyway. (We get substantially fewer deductions, for example.)
I say unamerican because he wants to give parents more voting power with more kids
Didn’t Fascist Italy do this at some point in time?
Terrible idea from Vance.
Oh Flipper Vance… why are you the way that you are?
Government so small it can only oppress the poor and middle class.
