This was obvious from the beginning, people actrec like all these measures would be free. Of course when we brought it up we got told "you are killing grandma"

I hear you but hey, perish the thought anyone tax billionaires/companies appropriately and take it out of the hundreds of billions plugged away that would net. I know some say it's "not possible" but hypothetically if it was we'd most likely not be getting screwed once again.

I am all for taxing billionaires but I won't ever equate a billionaire to a corporation. Those are totally different things. I don't think corporations should be taxed at a high rate. I think billionaires income should be taxed at 90+%

For clarification I was talking about billionaires who evade/avoid paying tax(es). Forgive me for not being clearer. Although I'm one who subscribes to the thought that there shouldn't be billionaires and people starving to death on the same planet but that's a different topic entirely.
