How would you hit leftists without also hitting conservative billionaires like the Koch Brothers and Sheldon Adelson?
“How would you hit leftists without also hitting conservative billionaires like the Koch Brothers and Sheldon Adelson?”
Please, realize there is some hyperbole in my suggestion. I don’t think it is legal to tax people for their political affiliations though that never bothers the left.
That said:
Voter registration. If they are registered democrats then tax them. Tax only democrats.
Political donations. If they donate to candidates that support raising taxes then tax them. They supported the issue let them follow through.
Public statements in the last 2 years. If they’ve publicly supported tax increases then tax them. Let them put their money where their mouth is.
This isn’t about taxes it is about punishment for supporting socialism.
