Joe Biden Is Setting a Trap for the GOP

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

51% : I would personally prefer this country to embrace the Flat Tax, where there is but one, 15 percent tax imposed on all people fairly, that idea has no traction and there isn't enough time to try to convince the electorate that that's the best way to go forward.
46% : And there should be greater increases on taxes of billionaires or the near-billionaires.
44% : The Republicans should agree that we must raise taxes -- but not on anyone making less than $5 million.
43% : If Republicans agreed to raise taxes -- but only on certain, very high-earning groups -- they could mitigate this threat and be in a better position to win the 2024 election.
41% : We will have to raise taxes.
39% : According to the nonpartisan Joint Committee on Taxation, Biden's tax plan actually hits wage earners making as little as $40,000 per year and as much as $400,000.
32% : By raising taxes on businesses and those making $400,000, he will be hurting the economy.
26% : Biden's class warfare rhetoric enters the equation by stating that, in order to pay for these new programs, he will need to raise taxes.
25% : President Joe Biden wants to have a fight over taxes as we approach the 2024 Presidential Election.
25% : That is why Biden is counting on having the fight over taxes: he believes he can win that fight and make it a big election-year issue.
