Yeah, that’s my point. It’s not the income that’s as much of a problem as the leadership.
You need leaders willing to spend money on workers instead of owners. Giving Trump more money isn’t going to make him spend it on critical social programs.
Shifting more of the tax burden from the working class to the wealthy reduces the ability of the wealthy to influence politics—that’s how you get leaders willing to prioritize workers over owners.
It’s not a shift if you have a Republican Congress and President who will not only give it all to their billionaire friends but run up a debt to give more than they took in taxes.
ah yes. make the government terrible so people hate the government. then use this distrust to dismantle the public sector and privatize everything.
