well, the money has to come from somewhere.
poor people don't have it.
Rich people don't pay tax .

Of course you can find some rebuttal? Grin

Or listen hear and tell us it was all untrue.

Mate you put the source up and I'm telling you on that video provided she said nothing about middle class taxes. If she did say it put up the source

How about Town hall then?

"During her confirmation hearing on Capitol Hill this week, Biden Commerce Secretary nominee Gina Raimondo admitted Democrats will have to raise taxes on all Americans, including the middle and lower class, in order to pay for President Biden's "climate" agenda.

"Let me say this, I as governor am deeply in touch with how much increasing bills affect the average American family. Having said that, we do need to meet the climate change challenge and we need funds for improved infrastructure," Raimondo said. "I would look to balance those interests."

Of course you could try snopes. Wink

It is amazing really. Sometimes Daily caller is ok sometimes not. I guess it depends on the story.
