    This doesn’t happen with financial assets though, at least not that I’ve heard of. Can you name an example of " we are going to give you a break on these taxes or fees" then that turns into “you did nothing wrong, but we are going to want those 20 years of unpaid taxes/fees that we told you that you didn’t need to pay, we changed our minds”.

        Were you not suggesting we require all the tax breaks over the last however many years be paid back in full? If not I just have been mixing you up with one of the other dozens of far left crazies I’ve been chatting with.

        If you just want to repeal tax breaks that didn’t have a guaranteed life that hasn’t been reached yet, then that’s fine I would probably agree to it depending on the side effects it might cause the middle and lower classes.

            You realize your ideas that are also being suggested by most people here are radical, right? Radical left is a thing, and this place is overflowing with it.

            It’s one thing to suggest doing something about the cuts, but most here don’t think that’s nearly enough, proposing literal theft and preventing movement outside the country. I would argue it’s just as insane here as it is in far right circles, just a different kind of insane.

                    I mean we are talking about a US issue, so yeah it does matter what the US thinks on US issues, and it really doesn’t matter what the rest of the world thinks.

                    There aren’t many countries out there who don’t have a history of that stuff, I don’t see why the issues of the past matter at all in this scenario.
