Keep in mind that in 1975 the top tax rate was 48%, some sources say the effective rate on corporate was 44%. This message went out right before the largest recorded increase in USA poverty from 1980 to 1983, and the Reagan Administration gutting federal regulatory bodies and slashing the corporate tax rates down to effective 0 rates, sometimes a negative rate if they received corporate welfare.
If anything, bro really jinxed it by saying “it can’t possibly get worse, right?”
Devil’s Advocate coming in, Joe Rogan doesn’t identify himself as a conservative and does hold some political beliefs of either side, preferring to remain apolitical in many of his interviews, however he does speak with a lot of conservatives and had an especially anti-vax opinion during the pandemic. IMO, he can fuck off, but as an individual rather than a representative of a larger group.
He’s a “right winger” who endorsed Bernie in the primaries and voted for Jorgenson in the general elections. Seems like you really want to simplify a nuanced issue as much as possible, I understand that feeling, but the truth is not black and white.
The devil’s advocate is needed to bring the sort of individual fairness that even the worst of us deserve, and to assess the situation from all possible angles. Care to explain why it’s a shitty opinion?
There we go, that’s a much more accurate assessment. Although, as another commentator has pointed out, he very recently took a hard right and is supporting De Santis while openly being friends with Alex Jones.
