Why are you trying to talk sensible tax law in a Union thread? Valid points but out of place.The problem with your soak-rich-logic is that it never stops there. Only the very wealthy first paid federal income taxes after the 16th amendment was enacted. 50 years later only the very wealthy initially paid anything under the Alternative Minimum Tax (ATM). Your wealth tax ideas will start with the very rich, but they won’t end there.
You’re being lured in by a divide and conquer strategy (or perhaps just perpetrating one; there’s no way to be sure).
As a 15-year Steward, Unions in this country are in a sorry state. The leadership neither respects nor listens to the rank and file. The workers respond by not joining. Funny how that works.
