Flat taxes are the devil.

Republicans have a predilection for looking at the past with nostalgia goggles.

Well of course. Men were men. Women were women. And white men kept those uppity brown people in their place. What's not to love?

 

[RoKKeR]

Oh hey this is what the inside of my eye sockets look like.

 

[Bronx-Man]

Just tuning into this, any big moments happen so far?

 

[moomoo14]

Ah, Carson thinks that people will be more generous if they have more money in their pockets. Cute.

So do people become more generous when they have less money in their pockets?

I mean, I think the amount of money a person has is irrelevant to their generosity. What matters is their values, and if people who are generous have more money, will they suddenly become less generous by paying less in taxes?

 

[C0unter]

Wonder why noone other than these candidates ever thought about getting rid of loopholes.

 

[Mass Effect]

Invoking the damn bible against the tax code wut

The battle of who could have the flattest tax.

Outside of a spat between Trump, Kasich, and Bush, this is a boring softball circlejerk

Jeb hasn't straight-up answered a question without someone interrupting him before he starts yet.

 

[Jarmel]

Oh that 5000 line is total bullshit.

 

[Anton Sugar]

Invoking the damn bible against the tax code wut

did that just happen

 

[kingkitty]

someone needs pop off some fireworks

this is becoming a snoozer

 

[Pimplitosaurio]

Abolish the IRS doesn't sound like the greatest thing, why are they cheering?

 

[Revolver]

Wow I've never heard such forward thinking tax plans before.

 

[giga]

Says low interest rates are increasing inequality. Promotes flat taxes.

Scumbag GOP.

 

[ScribbleD]

What is the point of the bell if they aren't going to enforce the time limits?

How can you simultaneously say that corporations are using the tax code to avoid paying tax while also suggesting that your reduced base line tax rate would encourage businesses to not operate overseas? Isn't it one or the other? Either you tax a company more or less, it can't be both.

 

[NYCmetsfan]

dynamic = bullshit

 

[Crimson_Gold]

As a God-fearing, church going Christian, every-time I hear these people invoke God I want to kill myself

It really is something. I'm constantly saying, "my God is different from yours."

 

[Manmademan]

"There are more words in the IRS Tax Code than in the Bible"

What does that have to do with anything

Cruz is appealing to the base by comparing the tax code to another book that everyone claims to know something about but never reads

 

[Makai]

He just oopsed

 

[PBY]

What is the point of the bell if they aren't going to enforce the time limits?

After watching 4 of these, what's the point is a great question

 

[Hexa]

He said commerce twice. lol

 

[Officerrob]

That Department of Commerce is doubly bad

 

[Sickboy007]

Oops?

 

[Angelus Errare]

The bell it does nothing!!

 

[ctfg23]

Rick Perry 2.0

 

[RPGamer92]

Did Cruz say Department of Commerce twice?

 

[User 463088]

He wants to get rid of HUD.

So the poor can't have health care, food, houses......do we get bootstraps or do we have to provide our own?

 

[Epsilon-delta]

Abolish the IRS?

Cruz is a straight up comic-book villain.

 

[freeofgreed]

Get rid of the irs, and department of comerce....twice? Nice job job Cruz

 

[Arkos]

That Department of Commerce is doubly bad

Kill it twice!!!

 

[Sianos]

our tax code is longer than the bible... and not a single word is as good

i will eliminate five departments, and two of them are the department of commerce

 

[Euron]

Did Cruz just say he'll eliminate the Department of Energy?

 

[Dragon]

Carson is against raising the minimum wage. He apparently believes that God is a big part of his life. This is not consistent.

Paying people more money drives more economic growth than lowering taxes. It's based on actual data over the course of the last 100 years in the United States.

 

[Crocodile]

Did he say eliminate the Department of Commerce twice?

Also, killing parts of the government that do good work (even if they could do it better) should not be something celebrated

 

[heliosRAzi]

Did Cruz say Department of Commerce twice?

I think he did

 

[Baliis]

At least he did a little better at listing departments than Romney did.

 

[B33]

So much pandering.

 

[Revolver]

He'll cut the DoC twice.

Please elaborate.

[NYCmetsfan]

[Mecha]
