These are the stupid ideas the Democrats come up with. There are three billionaires in Oregon. Three. If this passes I suspect they will just move.
At the federal level, this would be unconstitutional.

Why is it bad that conservatives only propose desirable solutions and not ones that just “fix” one problem by creating another?

Why the fuck would I support paying more taxes to secure the future of programs that I want thrown in the bin?

Hardly. He government should have no place redistributing wealth by force.

The great depression did not end because of any of the social security programs. It ended because of ww2 (most of those programs were suspended or eliminated to support ww2).
Since lefties will claim otherwise.
Despite all the President’s efforts and the courage of the American people, the Depression hung on until 1941, when America’s involvement in the Second World War resulted in the drafting of young men into military service, and the creation of millions of jobs in defense and war industries

You realize ending fossil fuel subsidizes will impact the poor the most?
Does it? I hear that, buy why/how does it impact the poor the most? I mean…aside from the fact that they have relatively less money anyway because economic institutions ensure they do…how else are they impacted?
Subsidies =/= tax breaks. Surely you understand how giving money and not stealing are different. If not, I hope you enjoy my Christmas present of not robbing you blind.
I don’t mind paying taxes for things like roads, water, etc. Those are things we all need.
I am against wealth distrubution. I don’t even mind social safety nets but we allow people to abuse them.
The government shouldn’t be taking my money and sending it to someone else who didn’t earn it. That doesn’t create success.
If welfare was successful then why haven’t we seen poverty eliminated? All it does is keep people on welfare and not being productive members of society.
It can’t. Social security is done by the Feds.
It’s against the constitution to tax wealth. The second someone tried to pass that, it would be struck down by scotus.
At most a state could do it and they’d lose the billionaires.
To do this they’d have a pass an amendment and there is zero chance they’ll happen.
And when have democrats radically raised taxes? Trump was the last one to screw with high income tax earners with the salt limit
