An exodus of the upper middle class and the wealthy is what you get when you try to “spread the wealth”
Pretty soon there are no more makers, just takers.

This could be cured very easy. A flat tax or national sales tax would do it. Everyone taxed the same percentage and SHAZAM the “poor” would no longer be just takers and the super wealthy would not have loopholes to escape paying the full amount. See, an easy solution to a complex problem. But first eliminate all forms of income tax. That would be a little harder.

It will never happen. It would be to easy for the producers to go on a “strike” by not spending. It is very hard for the average Joe to stop working in protest.
