The FCC decided it wouldn’t be the “best” use of limited funds.

    Capital gains, luxury sales taxes, taxes on property and holdings, those are all pretty basic and don’t even require new taxes, just rate changes.

    Then there’s new taxes, things like progressive taxes based on value of unrealized gains (currently before SCOTUS), which could include stock ownership over X amount of stock, etc.

    There are more ways to tax people than can be listed, realistically.

            Weird that you share their values, then.

                Opposing subsidies that help poor people.

                Seeing no differentiation between rich people and big companies.

            Saying true things does not make one an asshole.

            You’re just unhappy with the truth and taking it out on me.
