    Actual war funding generally comes from taxing the rich too. In USA during WW2 the rich had to pay 90% taxes!!!
    All of Europe has been giving the rich lower taxes for decades, raise the taxes on the rich could easily cover most, also without going to extremes. We only need about 1% extra tax to cover the increased military expenditure.

    To claim we can’t afford that without sacrificing healthcare and services is based on propaganda by the 1%.
