According to a January 27, 2019 CNN report, two Democrats want more taxes on the wealthy as they believe that the wealthy aren't paying their fair share-Elizabeth Warren & Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez. Cortez wants all income over $10 million to be taxed 70%. She wants these to fund her New Green Deal initiative relating to climate change. Warren wants assets of the wealthy taxed such as businesses, investments, financial holdings, mansions, & artwork. The new Democratic Party intends to put into practice their philosophy of income redistribution, targeting the wealthy classes. The Democratic Party isn't the party for the successful, it is a party for those who want handouts & to be dependent. They believe that everyone should have a comfortable lifestyle even if it wasn't earned. They want the rich to support the poor via taxes. Your thoughts on this? They intend to tax the rich in order so that everyone can live equally.
Democrats are kind people who care about others.
Sadly, however, their greatest Hero is Sheriff of Nottingham.

A serious question, posed more to those who identify as Democrats. I would really like to know who you believe will come forth with a message of unification, prosperity, and a positive outlook toward the future... someone mainstream Americans could believe in.
