      They don’t! $450 is an insignificant portion of a lifetime of tax revenue, and they don’t even need tax revenue because the government is not a business and doesn’t make money from taxes. There’s no actual rational explanation, these are brain worms.

          Correct. Taxing the rich and doing what with it? Bomb more schools? Funding and allocation is not the issue with the US and social services. If the US wanted to fund them they would be funded. The issue is that the rich need people to be poor and desperate so that the rich can use the poor to keep themselves rich. Taxing them doesn’t solve this.

          Eating the rich solves this.

          Taking their money makes sense.

          EDIT To clarify: Not as a way to fund anything, but because they should have less money.
