In all honesty that’s what we’re doing now.
Good point!
I’ve noticed with the built-in socialism we already have that people are seeing the fruits of their labor increasingly directed by the government in terms of where it is spent. Lower-income people spend little of their discretionary dollars on groceries, rent, or college tuition because they are provided by the taxes on people earning more; middle-class people pay full freight on all three. The leftists are already getting some measure of “equality of results”; both groups end up penniless or in debt, dying with little to show for their efforts.
The new tax law has really benefited the mass of people who’ve decided the cycle ends now - they won’t breed, and they won’t buy homes. They’ll enjoy the fruits of their labors and leave this world without a care - and a completely new population will inherit what is left.
Sadly, so true.
