    It should just be a continuing, progressive income tax. No breaks, no loopholes, no tax evasion. The left is focusing on a single, arbitrary number and it’s a bad idea.

      I’d argue it’s an idea that’s easy enough to convince others to vote for. Anything with “tax” in it, has and will be weaponized. Realistically, a wealth cap may not be the best solution, but its the only one simple enough that propaganda has a hard time twisting. It’s an easy sell to those with a 5th grade reading level.
