I hate to break it to you but the whole "tax the rich" thing is what the rich want you debating... why? Cause you can tax them all you want, but when our budget is 60% military they will still get rich and we will go in debt no matter how much you tax them.
Ya know what the rich really dont want? You fighting to get the military budget slashed in half leaving more than enough money to cut taxes for everyone (including the rich)... but noooo, any solution that saves everyone money, including the rich, is one that will never be supported.
So many people just get spoon fed a narrative and then its law.
taxing the rich is about reducing their political power, not the government revenue. we must also slash military spending. and provide universal health care.
@wjmaggos Well that's just a bad idea.
What you're describing is tearing down instead of building up, or more practically, it sets up cross purposes for the practice while supporting really unrealistic mythologies about how political power works.
If taxation is about political power then the country is generally going to reject it because most people aren't interested in social manipulation like that.
So when you inject such an idea it's very counterproductive. At least don't say it out loud even if you believe in such foolishness.
