Can't Make This UP: Mark Kelly Says Quiet Part Out Loud Explaining Democrats' Plan to 'Lower Costs'

Sen. Mark Kelly went on Face the Nation with a plan to lower costs that starts by winning Congress and ends with a tax hike.

Because that's what Democrats do, they raise taxes.

How that's supposed to actually lower costs is a mystery.

Pressed on how Democrats would actually bring prices down, the Arizona senator pointed to legislation he shares with Chris Van Hollen: higher taxes on people making over a million dollars a year, paired with cuts for individuals and couples earning up to about 160,000.

The exchange made the math plain.

Relief, in this version, arrives only after Washington takes a bigger cut from someone else which is how government functions since it does not create or produce anything.

Smeagle. That never gets old.

@LarryOConnor They’re going to take from those who produce and give to those who don’t produce. Fails every time it’s tried.

But it convinces the mooches to keep voting Democrat, and sadly, there seems to be more and more mooches.
