Every day ... more lies.
Wealthy individuals find clever ways to dodge taxes.
Corporations don't pay taxes, their customers pay taxes.
Besides there aren’t enough of the wealthy to make the numbers they want! Like what Willie Sutton said -” you go where the money is!” The Middle Class individually they don’t compare to the wealthy, but they make that up in numbers! Besides its more fun for a leftist to torment the middle class!
You could confiscate the wealth of all the wealthy and it wouldn’t satisfy the iron dreams of the socialists\progressives\communists\Rats!
And they can always change the definition of “wealthy”.
