    Tax wealth not work is a great way to pitch it to people as well. It doesn’t matter if your working 30,40,50,60+ hour weeks, whether you make 10,20,30,50,100,200 dollars an hour. That’s not what they are pitching to increase taxes on. They want to cut taxes on workers.

      All the media is owned by wealth, and it will be spun and sold to the masses as a Bad Thing. And as we we have seen, the majority of people are idiots and lap that shit up.

        I think a lot of it is that people don’t view things as finite, they for some reason think every dollar they make is a new dollar that came from nowhere and when they spend it, it goes no where. It’s easier to not look at the big picture of where the money flows, and just tunnel vision what is happening directly to themselves and hope someone else fixes things because they don’t have time/money to address anything.
