Meet New Hampshire's Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Democrat Rep. Harrison Kanzler - Granite Grok

Meet New Hampshire’s Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Democrat Rep. Harrison Kanzler

Economic genius need not be limited to Freshman Democrat Congresspersons from New York City. New Hampshire has discovered it has one too. His name is Harrison Kanzler. He represents the town of North Conway.

And he wants to assure you that a tax on your income is not an income tax.

In defense of a Family Medical Leave plan and a proposed state-mandated tax on individual income, Mr. Kanzler, who is not an economist, would like us to know this is actually just a premium that is calculated on our earned wages.

 

 

“I just want to start with one point of clarification. Throughout this entire process, there has been a lot of talk about income taxes. I’m not an economist. But I believe by, in point of fact, by the definition of an income tax, which is that it taxes your income, this is not an income tax. Just, just want to put that out there.

It is a premium that is calculated on your earned wages. Wages are certainly part of your income. But there’s a lot more that goes into your income. Uh, again, not an economist but, this is the way I like to think.”

The Democrats have done a lot over the years to waterboard the language. We can add claiming that a tax on income is NOT an income tax.

Welcome to your internet fifteen minutes of infamy, Mr. Kanzler. Democrat New Hampshire House Rep, from North Conway.
