I actually just did the math on this. Removing the 12 weeks of paid FMLA, which is self-sustaining, and the responsible estate tax act, which doesn’t have any data (and even to be fair not including the income from the progressive estate tax):
Average Yearly Cost: 311.15 Billion
Average Yearly Revenue: 537.96 Billion
Average Yearly Profit: 226.81 Billion
Current National Deficit: 474 Billion
So, this means that not only would Bernie’s plan give us so many of the critical programs our citizens need, they would also pay off the national deficit with the profits alone in just over 2 years. (2 Years, 29 Days, 4 Hours, 48 Minutes to be precise). All by treating the wealthy like the rest of us. Pay attention to this guys. This is the kind of money that’s locked away by the 1%. Enough to fix the national debt in two years if they’re treated like EVERYONE ELSE. Think of how fast we could have recovered if they were taxed HIGHER.
OKAY BUT THE LAST ONE IS 100% OF THE REASON I UPLOADED THESE
I JUST… COMPLETELY FORGOT I EVER DID THIS SO… NEARLY FELL OFF MY CHAIR BECAUSE IT’S STILL FUNNY
OLD AS HELL sketches of Tumblrpon Characters in War in Equestria setting :3
Hades (although not her character, it was suggested by sombrashyshady) Skylark Wiggles & Queen Papillon (had she turned evil like the rest of the changelings did)
Changeling Queen’s can be very possessive over sticks, although that one in particular belonged to Wiggles. Papillon had to have such a lovely stick..
Lies! It was Papi’s stick that Wiggles had to gall to steal!
