US Election 2020

[Scot Dutchy]

Real facts:

European Parliament

Have a good read.

So you've gone full Trump and want to claim the wiki article is fake news? You really are a joke.

[pErvinalia]

Note, the disparity between say Luxembourg and Germany is even worse now under the new rules. That is, one vote in Luxembourg is worth more than 11x the vote in Germany.

[Scot Dutchy]

Keep trying. It is still far more democratic than anything in the Anglo-Saxon world including your own.

[pErvinalia]

Blah blah blah. Your system isn't democratic either. Deal with it.

[Scot Dutchy]

You dont get do you. Small countries have small votes.

[pErvinalia]

What are you talking about? Luxembourg has 11 times the seats of Germany on a pro rata basis. That's not democratic.

[Scot Dutchy]

How many seats has Luxembourg? Still trying?

[pErvinalia]

Luxembourg has 11 times more seats per capita than Germany. This means that a Luxembourgian vote is worth 11 times that of a German citizen's vote. This is basic maths. What's your malfunction?

Maybe we need new terminology to describe American democracy. Democracy Lite? 1% Milkfat Democracy? Veggie Democracy? Pasteurized processed cheese food Democracy?

"I've paid over $10 billion in taxes," Gates said at the New York Times DealBook Conference November 6, according to Market Watch. "If I had to pay $20 billion, it's fine. But when you say I should pay $100 billion, then I'm starting to do a little math about what I have left over."

Warren's calculator says Gates would pay $6.379 billion under her tax on the wealthy against a net worth of $107 billion.
Warren proposes a two percent tax on every dollar of net worth greater than $50 million and a three percent tax on every dollar of net worth above $1 billion, according to her website.

Data from Warren's campaign indicates that "the richest 130,000 families in America now hold nearly as much wealth as the bottom 117 million families combined." She claims that her plan which would only impact 75,000 households will generate $2.75 trillion over the span of a decade.
