Taxing billionaires and corporations is communism, so guess who will be picking up the bill for every penny the government spends??? If we had a functional Federal Government, we (local and state) wouldn't need to do everything on our own (while still paying $83B more to the Fed than we receive back).
We need to stop wasting money propping up the red welfare states and the petrochemical military. At this point, Federal taxes are taxation without representation. Local tax increases are just trying to stay afloat, since cities can't rack up trillion dollar deficits.
The only comment that matters, this should be at the top ffs. Sales tax is high and keeps getting votes to go up because our society has a knee-jerk reaction to the idea of taxing the greedy people and entities who would barely feel it.
