@BoydStephenSmithJr sure… the issue is that taxes on sales are non-progressive. The proportional impact would be much greater for low-income workers than for affluent people. The other concern is that US infrastructure is built for cars, not people. Many people can’t afford to live somewhere with better transit options, they need to drive to work, to live. To be clear, I’m with you on principle and on the basic ideas, it’s just that we need a carrot to go along with the stick. Maybe part of a wealth tax goes into public transportation and that breaks down the demand side of things, right?
