    Wealth taxation may be an important men’s to an end, but in our discourse we need to emphasize more what benefits would be planned for the tax revenue.

    Reducing the wealth of greedy assholes is nice, but by itself only gets so far.

      Yea. that’s kind of the problem, no one in power has a plan for education, healthcare, housing, wage stagnation, two-tiered job market, or anything really. But one of the benefits would be not running up a deficit. We spend way too much on interest payments, and we really don’t see the pay off for the money being borrowed. It’s time for a new government the old one broke itself with greed.
