None of Harris's emerging economic policy is defensible .........unless you believe in the theories of post-neoliberalism (anti neoliberalism). Post-neoliberalism advocates for the expansion of welfare benefits, greater governmental investment in poverty reduction, and increased state intervention in the economy. The Biden administration is basically post-neoliberal. Harris will solidify that economic policy approach furthering the drift of the US to illiberalism that began more than a decade ago with consecutive D administrations.
A vote for Harris in November is essentially a vote for economic progressivism (planned economies and non-capitalist economic policies.... that would be socialism). A vote for Harris signals your rejection of economic liberalism (free trade and an open economy). To me the worst part of post-neoliberal economic policy is the underlying income redistribution of the top AGI earners that end up paying for profligate government spending that pays for the "free stuff" Harris is talking about. High-Income taxpayers paid the majority of Federal Income Taxes. In 2021, the bottom half of taxpayers earned 10.4 percent of total AGI and paid 2.3 percent of all federal individual income taxes. The top 1 percent earned 26.3 percent of total AGI and paid 45.8 percent of all federal income taxes.
I guess DSL and CGVT are fine with that.
