She’s a radical far left progressive from California with avg intelligence. Ucla found of 109 senators she is the second most liberal.
Kamala’s take on the Economy
- Thread starter snarlcakes
- Start date
Some of crazy ish she said in 2019 during the primary is starting to come out. Wingnut leftist. Peak.
Response to snarlcakes on the original post:
I don't disagree that Harris is pretty far left. But the conditions that will get her to the White House are a direct result of extremism from the far right and the inability of conservatives to maintain control of their party.
Why the hell didn't they keep Paul Ryan? He was a pure conservative and would have been able to beat Harris.
Trump is the problem. Get rid of Trump and MAGA and you'll have a chance to get your economic preferences back in charge.

Just stop. The reason Kamala would be president is the people who vote for her. Period! There are a myriad of reasons people could vote for her. Such as her mixed race, her gender, her liberalism, her manner of speaking, her $25k home ownership promise, student debt and medical debt cancellations, pro-Palestinian policy, and much more. Disliking Trump is down the list.
The press will help guide her PR
Disagree. I don’t think she could organize a one-car funeral. Driving for Meals on Wheels is probably her highest and best use.
They’re becoming the real threat
I could name ten nonprofits off the top of my head she’d be perfect for at the local level
Wow. WaPo from the rafters. Is there still enough sense among the electorate that they can’t be swayed by promises of free money?
Time will tell.
They are a threat now.
They rigged the 2020 campaign with the laptop nonsense, the Russia nonsense and so much more. Their failure to hold the left accountable for anything is a large reason why the left is off the rails today. Accountability makes people be better.
I don’t know why price controls ever get political traction. Economists are, I believe, unanimously opposed, yet that seems to be a go-to position. Prices rise because of supply shortages. Price ceilings have proven to cause more shortages.
Let’s recall the Johnson administration guns and butter budget followed by Nixon’s price controls.
Didn’t this create the beginnings of stagflation which the oil embargo shock supercharged.
The 2% return made by grocers makes price control to combat price gouging laughable.

And when you’ve lost renowned economist Bruce Pearl, you know it’s a bad idea.
Because they’re irresistible to ambitious and reckless politicians. The pitch sounds good to a lot of people when they’re struggling with inflation or supply shocks or whatever else might be squeezing their budgets.
It should not be left unsaid that Nixon was reelected in a landslide, a year after he instituted these destructive policies.
Bullshit. Complete lack of ownership on your side.
I’ve long said that the only true tax cut is a spending cut.
The things we call “tax cuts” are actually just shifting of the burdens to some other people and/or some other time.
I don’t know if this has been posted yet but here goes.
I disagree because I count myself as voting for her as my only option to make sure Trump does not get back to Washington.
Kamala, as just reported, on day one is going to put a minus sign in front of the inflation number. Quoted as saying, the banks will start paying us black folk for a change!!! Holla y’all
So a basketball coach understands more about basic economics than the candidate for President of the UnitedStates? Makes sense.
Pearl is a proud Jew and very pro Israel. He wants nothing to do with Harris or the far left.
Based on what I've heard from her just since 2019 I think you're giving her far too much credit... That woman is a babbling moron...
Just insane, tbh....I get it with Trump. But some would rather see our country burn to ashes, than vote for him. From "causing Civil War Like condition" comments, to price controls, to this....Again, what a populist statement and approach, which she knows (as a lawyer) has no legal standing
Context is here:
How a Democratic president could reduce drug prices without Congress
Two obscure laws provide an opening for a Democratic president to slash drug prices.www.vox.com
Just mind boggling. All the things dems have accused DJT of doing, or going to do----they have done. Harris as POTUS is a fukin disaster.
And guess which Party wants to do away with the Electoral College and elect a President based on the popular vote?
Paul Ryan didn't do anything in his 4 years as Speaker to indicate he'd be in any running for the Presidency. He faded so badly, he dropped out of politics altogether.
So there isn't property tax being paid on property until a first time buyer gets $25k to buy it?
Can't wait to see these 2 debate.
She doesn’t have the foggiest idea how real estate works and every real estate deal trump handles is like 3 card monte 🤣🤣🤣
