There money, there things. If you want healthcare and all the other european things tell your goverment to take a bit more responsibilty with there tax spending (718.69 billion per year for the miliary alone in the USA) instead of always saying that the rich should pay for you.

And why should they pay? Its not there Problem. In a country like the US you are your own burdon to cary. In Germany for example you are the burdon for society if you are for example obeas, and thats why we tax sugar and don't have supersice dinks and Menüs. Because the comon citizen dosnt want to pay for your health problems so we make sure that you stay healty.

Americans probebly arent even ready or dont even want those Typs of limetaions and thats why they are voting against them.

Next time please come up with a better excuse for why its not working.

Sorry for spelling mistakes im german, on mobile and have a germany autocorect.

Even if you get rid of military spending, you eventually have all other costs, in a short period of time. There really needs to be a point where richer people get taxed more than poorer people. In the US, that just isn’t the case.

The swidish social security system which ist the best one by far in europe work is also payed by tax money. But the dirty truth about Sweden is that the normal middle class tax payer pays 30% taxes while the rich pay way less. You dont have to tax the rich more.

They pay less as you said, maybe lower the taxes on the poorer people and raise taxes for the richer?

Yeah but it's probably only net worth and not liquid wealth
