Housing, food, health care and education are basic human rights and thus should be free.

@pdockal I never said that you specifically should pay more taxes.
@pdockal the top 10% income earners pay over 70% of all tax dollars. our school and property taxes are over $40,000 a year. it's going up 8% this year. waiting on the bill

@saragoodtimes

First property tax isn't based on income
It's based on the value of the property
Second most rich don't pay their share because of the deductions & how they earn their money

The middle class foots most of the taxes

If you want equity then you need a flat tax with no deductions

@pdockal How can you justify billionares when we have children starving in the world? 😥😥😥 I work but I would gladly pay higher taxes to house the homeless and give everyone free tax paid healthcare, welfare for the elderly and disabled, free tax paid education and guaranteed free tax paid childcare but unfortunately America is full of far right Conservatives who rather a billionare keep all that money despite children starving in africa and homeless Americans on the street! 😠😠😠 I am NOT a Socialist but a Social Democrat which is what the Scandinavian countries have and unlike pure Socialism which I agree doesn't work Social Democracy does work all we need to do is tax the rich to help those in need! 😇😇😇

@MommyLucy

Housing homeless doesn't fix anything
Feeding homeless doesn't fix anything
Because you have to fix what causes the homelessness

Mental health issues are usually the cause
Flat tax without deductions is the only fair system

Corruption makes everything worse
Politicians make everything worse

One wise man once said

Feed a man & he eats a meal
Teach a man to provide for himself & he'll eat many meals
