This line always works on the suckers in the democratic party.

“We are helping dig families out of debt by telling billionaires to pay their fair share!”

I've pointed out this very same commercial. Truth is, many don't care what BS Kamala spews. As long as she embraces leftwing dogma and trite talking points, it's all good. "FAIR SHARE."

A PAC supporting Kamala Harris runs an ad that features Harris making the following impassioned statement, “We are helping dig families out of debt by telling billionaires to pay their fair share!” The commercial presents this exclamation as Harris’ “reason for running” for office, but does not explain what it means. Some of the audience tries to guess what this statement means while Harris’ supporters do not care and will vote for her regardless of what she says. Those who care to understand must speculate for an explanation. To whom will “billionaires” pay this undefined “fair share?” We can guess that she is talking about paying taxes. She does not explain how billionaires paying more taxes will help dig families out of debt.

After three years of the Biden-Harris administration, consumer debt reached an all-time high of 17.8 trillion dollars in quarter two of 2024. This total was comprised of more than 12.5 trillion dollars in mortgage debt and over 5 trillion dollars in automobile and credit card debt. There is no official federal program to relieve consumers of this debt -- except for bankruptcy, which brings its own complications. There is no connection between higher taxes and lower consumer debt. Higher taxes hurt the economy, cost jobs, and make it more difficult for consumers to pay their debt. Harris has strung together two unrelated concepts. Both of these concepts appeal to a left-wing base that neither understands nor cares to understand what is destroying the country. Everyone would like to owe less money, while leftist politicians have talked vaguely about “fair share” for many decades. Harris does not expect her base to question whether there really is a connection between vague “fair share” talk and their own growing consumer debt. She expects them merely to grasp at anything that provides something for nothing.
