The only GOP candidate to open worm cans the usual suspects ignore.
His age doesn't alarm me more than his inexperience in this field. I too think he'll best serve as Trumps VP. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: He doesn’t support an estate tax. He was going through a scenario of meritocracy and egalitarianism, but ultimately said it would be wrong for the government to death tax 100% for meritocracy’s sake and people would find ways around it anyways. The point was there is something messed up about trust fund babies and a lineage of people like the nepotism of Clinton’s, Bush’s, Kennedy’s and Rothschild’s. Because power/wealth/networks can be generational transferred, merit starts to wane. People who are functionally retarded are put at nexus points which can have detrimental influence effects in broad systems. Think how many wars or people died/impoverished from inbreeding, irrational, immoral monarchs/emperors in the past for example? Just like the low IQ problem and technology pricing them out of jobs, it’s a look at something nobody really has a solution to without treading on individuals. It just keeps going and hopefully those who receive unearned money/power are wasteful, just like charity or creating jobs specifically is going to be a supplemental factors in low IQ living. Dangerous words to say out loud, just like citizenship has to be tested and voting need to be screened heavily. People can’t take it sometimes. Vivek 2024: no more sacred cows (The irony lol) The government is going to do far worse things with the tax they would collect from inheritances than any spoiled rich kids would. The whole idea that the government is somehow entitled to what wealth I was able to accumulate and pass on to my children is abhorrent. Thought experiment or no, his defense to this is basically that it's not implementable in the current system. He certainly doesn't close the door on implementing it when conditions are right. Let me be clear: The government is not entitled to anyone's inheritance. Inheritance tax is full on theft. Some tax is necessary, sure, but a large portion of current taxes are also theft. There should be no income tax and no double, triple, quadruple taxation. |

Come back. I know it’s hard to do that in a culture of clickbait sniping where nobody knows anything because truth or nuance is lost. I’ve listened to Trump wholly, DeSantis wholly, and Vivek. Vivek has more grasp of broader bases, implications and importances than Trump, but doesn’t have the gusto. He definitely has more charisma than DeSantis who honestly has had his platform handed to him by Trump and a Republican Floridian Congress, he just doesn’t have the courage to say anything beyond talking points handed to him. Vivek does lack political experience, but at this point that’s now a positive. The taint that comes with being mired in the GOP is toxic favors in exchange for soul. Not to mention Vivek being free to talk without pissing off the donors vying for handouts later. I mean, just look at the political sniping fodder being pushed in this thread. It’s from his book. Of more than 1 that DeSantis probably had a ghost writer do for him. Trump had his view put out decades ago but still was influential. |

His plan does not match statements from his book. In his book he says is the governments place to allow who can become a billionaire, it is the governments place to determine what happens to your money when you die if you are "rich", and it is the governments place to determine/limit what you can do to help out your children financially.
That is a mindset that big government knows best and should have the authority to take away most of what you built instead of allowing you pass it on to your children. His approach in his book is very similar to telling business owners "you didn't build that" except in this case it is "your kids didn't earn that (your wealth) so we are going to take it". Vivek is off my list of possible candidates I will consider. He does have some really great ideas, he can be an advisor but he should never be put in a position of power. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Dude. Merit is the prime tenant of my religion and we do not believe in bullshit like inheritance taxes. Stop being a communist. Dude. It was just highlighting an issue cropping up. Solutions? Inconclusive. Not communist to explore a subject. Uncomfortable realities and trade offs. Do you want merit or do you want mini-kingdoms where you reach a certain level after a couple generations that you transact corruptly with political actors for more share of kingdom either through subsidy or shutting out competitors? (Crony capitalism families quid pro quo deals) It highlights an issue, yes there maybe some parents who intentionally deprive their kids to build grit, but the likelihood is low. I think the bigger issue is the corruption which allows it to happen…which he has staunchly outlined the methods/details of accomplishing than any other candidate in refreshing candor. |

Goddamn this place is hilarious…
Half compare him to Obama even though their political views are literally polar opposites. But he’s brown and has a funny name so clearly he’s Obama 2.0. The other half say he’s full of shit and a grifter with no political experience just saying what folks wanna hear. And he was a democrat when he was a college student. But when it was Trump, who was a Democrat for nearly 50 years, doing literally the same thing they got on their knees to worship him. And most keep saying he’s “too young” to lead. The man is 38 years old. He’s middle aged. That comment being echoed is just proof that GD is mostly out of touch geriatrics. 35-55 is the age that pretty much all politicians should be. Younger? Get a little more life experience. Older? Go enjoy your last few years before your body rapidly declines physically and mentally. |

We don't need nationalism that is color-coded or to be India 2.0 Get past the facade and you will understand he just represents different flavor of identity politics and wokeism. Except old world caste system is dependent on family/performance. Talking about doing away with family inheritance is in direct opposition to that idea. Your premise is failure. We used to be a meritocracy. It’s corroded to racial/sexual/class preference quotas. The Gilded Age is no longer possible in today’s cultural/political climate. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I don't know why you folks are wasting your time. Trump has the head start and hasn't had to do a thing... You can support the other candidates all you want but, like it or not, Trump is on the ballot in 2024. Me? I think Trump is just a New York Democrat. That being said, I'm also a realist. Even if that's true.... It's also about making sure someone with a clear, cogent message like this goes as far as he possibly can, and gets taken 100% seriously. His platform is higher, more clear, and way more detailed than Trump's. Even though Trump is ahead right now. |

Anybody who thinks estates should go to anyone other than who the decendent decides is a fucking communist, period. Vivek would be roasted alive on this forum if the subject was gun control and he answered the same way. Interviewer: Would you support gun registration? Vivek: I would not as it is unemplementable in the current US system. Interviewer: Would you if you could? Vivek: I would not in that narrow context." |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Except old world caste system is dependent on family/performance. Talking about doing away with family inheritance is in direct opposition to that idea. Your premise is failure. We used to be a meritocracy. It’s corroded to racial/sexual/class preference quotas. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: The irony of his opposition to "mental competency" testing for lawmakers, especially given McConnell's second freezing episode, speaks volumes. He desires to implement version of Tamil Brahmin oppressive meritocracy so that a small elite group literally takes control of everything from who gets educated to what is defined as "merit". Meritocracy is already innately built in to our society. We don't need his version of caste system or his "non-white nationalism" in U.S.A. We don't need nationalism that is color-coded or to be India 2.0 Get past the facade and you will understand he just represents different flavor of identity politics and wokeism. Except old world caste system is dependent on family/performance. Talking about doing away with family inheritance is in direct opposition to that idea. Your premise is failure. We used to be a meritocracy. It’s corroded to racial/sexual/class preference quotas. You are either disingenuous or naive and uneducated regarding India's caste system historically, and how meritocracy was weaponized by Brahmin Tamils. His Tamil Brahmin lineage is very important to him. He has stated desire is to strip inter-generational American wealth. It's an attack on our society and our tradition. |
