I agree with you but I think it galls many of us when very wealthy inherited or otherwise types want to tax the crap out of ordinary folks like us to pay for folks who are a drag on our culture.
Years ago I dated a wealthy lawyer who was a committed Dem (I was admittedly ambivalent at the time). Anyway he once told me he would gladly pay higher taxes to, in today’s terms, effect change and help people. I told him; only because you can afford it!
