    I’ll believe it when I see it.

    When the big corpos retaliate with higher prices, it’s just lower income taxes with extra steps.

    Don’t forget to pair taxes on the wealthy with regulations. Make number go up is literally their only goal & they don’t hesitate to step on your grandma to do it.

      The thing is, aside from necessities, we have a choice in whether we buy from the big corporations. They don’t have a choice in whether they pay the taxes. (Well, they shouldn’t at least. But loopholes do be a thing.)

      We can out of corporate garbage and choose to support smaller, local businesses at any time.

        Do you have a non-corp choice in grocery stores in your area? Do you have a choice in electricity provider, natural gas, water, ISP? Any choice you think you have is a marketing tool, even farmers markets have people re-selling grocery store produce as “locally sourced”.
