Topic	damn. Ben Shapiro absolutely slaughtered Cenk Uygur in their debate
The Deadpool 08/03/17 12:55:50 PM #133:	Transcendentia posted... Ben used exaggeration and hyperbole to make a point. To be fair, his argument was ridiculous, and Cenk sort of touched on why: 0% tax rate is as absurd as 100% tax rate. Neither argument proves whether taxes should be higher or lower. The argument wasn't even that taxes HAD to be higher, it was simply pointing out that when we DID have higher taxes, we managed to flourish just fine. So the idea that higher taxes will inherently lead to destruction is flawed. History has shown it to be untrue. --- We are living in a world today where lemonade is made from artificial flavors and furniture polish is made from real lemons. <cite>The Deadpool posted [p:884114258] in damn.
