Who the fuck doesn’t support a wealth tax? Do poor people seriously think wealthy shouldn’t be taxed their fair share? If you make under $500k in this country, there’s absolutely no reason you shouldn’t fully support a wealth tax. And last I checked, there are far more people who make $500k. I swear, the poor are only poor because most are ignorant as hell and don’t know how to vote in their own self interest.

    Growing up in a very conservative bubble I can say that most who oppose a wealth tax do so on the basis of “when I get wealthy I don’t want them to tax me.” That or a general belief that a wealth tax will result in preventing them from becoming wealthy. This is also why they oppose regulations.
