      Nah, you just don’t understand or appreciate the economics of our tax system at all. It’s OK for people who make less to pay less in taxes or even no taxes. We have a so-called progressive tax for this very reason. Those who make millions and pay no taxes are the real problem with our system in the US. They find all of the loopholes and pay almost zero taxes, while people who are barely scraping by pay punitive tax percentages relative to their take home pay. The bad solution is wanting to fully tax people who can’t afford housing or healthcare while letting the billionaires skate. Trying to frame it as “their fair share” is absolutely laughable. The lack of concern for the billionaires not paying taxes here is very telling.
