It was fun watching Bernie Sanders question Budget Director Mike Mulvaney. In the exchange (a link of which is below), the viewer gets to see the priorities of both conservatives and liberals. The Conservatives want taxes to be fair (and low) for ordinary people like the Waltons. To be fair, I am not a fan of the estate tax because I consider inheritances gifts. It is more preferable to hike the top income tax brackets for individuals in that income group. Liberals want the government to help people in need and provide ladders for potential success. Get out the popcorn. This is a must watch.
