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.
Mark Kelly and the Democrats' plan to lower prices is to raise taxes. You can't make this up. https://t.co/cegzA5eNwq

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.

@LarryOConnor More NGO fraud of tax funds. They could cut fraud. Not raise taxes.

Cut fraud. Democrats never cut fraud ... and they always raise taxes.
