Charlie Kirk: 我认为，如果为了减少开支，将税率提高到40%是可以接受的。这实际上对高收入者未来的购买力是有益的。我们不应该对提高税收过于狂热，因为美国的不平等现象正在加剧，这对国家的稳定和团结不利。我们需要找到一种方式来平衡预算，即使这意味着我们需要支付更高的税收。 Mark Halperin: 奥巴马在医改法案之前通过了两项重要的法案，刺激计划可能避免了全球经济衰退。法案往往不完美，重要的是不要为了追求完美而阻碍了好的结果。特朗普改变了共和党，但在税收问题上没有改变，共和党人认为他们是低税收的党派，不能背离这一理念。提高富人的税收在政治上是明智的，在经济上也是正确的，但共和党在这方面受到的束缚太大了。美国存在收入不平等，需要制定计划来解决这个问题。经济应该是实现国家目标的手段，不要过于意识形态化。
