Why can't you just raise regular taxes and/or cap the capital gains exemption?
Why can't you stop pissing money away on debt financing wars and defense/war bs? Why can't you stop killing without due process? Should they afford you if you are killing without due process? Can they ethically be complicit with you without legal liability?
Should you expect them to become civically involved if you're blackmailing them about their medication which you are using their taxes to sabotage quality control of?
Why can't you stop picking fights, losing them, and sticking us with the bill for your bitch junta tirades?
(Kicks insulin away from your seizing body and explains that you don't deserve healthcare, though you must afford that entitlement for others)
If the government were going to afford personal welfare for the people to get people out of the red and into the black (instead of very selective corporate welfare), instead of debt financing wars, there would probably be more support for increasing taxes in the United States.
We can increase taxes on the wealthy without class warfare and without changing the subject to a hypothetical wealth tax.

Another number: the effective tax burden by binned household income
How many people did the government kill without due process while the government was out of money?
If I can't stop you from killing without due process using my money, should I give you more money?
What sort of assistance from wealthy people does the government need? Are religious and nonreligious NGOs better able to assist the poor without causing harm without due process?
