So what should we do? Kill the rich? That wouldn't accomplish anything. The goal is to redistribute money so that EVERYBODY has some. Not just the rich who are hoarding all the world's wealth. Taking the money that they most likely stole anyway away from them is the best way of doing that. Of course, there's always the option to print more money, but instead of doing that obvious solution, we are always presented with excuses usually from the rich misers, of why that won't work.
ROFLMAO....ok and how much has the USG sent you ?
You think the USG is "taking from the rich to give to the poor"
Did you get a benefit from corporations when they rolled back taxes in the 2017 Tax Reform? If not why are you concered.
Taxes need to be raised, there is no way around it. There is no way to balance the budget short of raising taxes. Rather than just saying no, come up with an alternative.
Yes, there is. It's called "stop spending money we don't have."
Gimme, gimme, gimme because you think you deserve it.
How about:
Life is a series of dwindling choices. Your goal in life and what they should teach in school is to maximize your choices starting when you are in school. Instead, every wrong choice you make early on gives you less choices later in life and puts you on a road to poverty or barely scraping by.
Don't screw around in school.
Graduate high school.
Don't hang out with losers.
Don't marry a loser.
Don't do drugs.
Don't have a baby out of wedlock.
Don't be a stay at home mother.
Don't spend money you don't have.
If your goal is to be rich, don't pick a stupid major and think you deserve some high paying job.
Stop being a slacker in your 20s and think everyone owes you something.
This isn't everyone, of course. Bad unforeseeable things do happen to people who do everything right but I'll bet that a large percent of people who have to work or struggle when they are retirement age were on the path of dwindling choices and on the road to poverty before they hit 25 years old because of one, some or most of the above.
Will probably take the most heat for the "stay at home mother" one but husbands die and the divorce rate is high. There's nothing more pitiful than a 40 or 50 something year old widow or divorcee with no current marketable job skills or experience but who has to find work at that age...even if they are highly educated.
Rich people don't owe you a dime.
I'm looking at it from the perspective of a disabled person over 50 who can't work. Nothing on your above list applies to me.

Most rich people have assets that generate money. They invested their money.
Give people money today they will spend it and be back in the same spot tomorrow...wanting more money.
