Tax the rich, ha, that's hilarious
Really funny. We do not decide what the rich are going to pay in taxes. IT IS NOT OUR GOVERNMENT! The rich purchased the government. There is no separation between the ultra rich, and the government. They are the same entity. Voting has nothing to do with it. They've bypassed the voters(regular people), because we are a nuisance.

This will only become our government again if we push back really fucking hard.

To borrow a phrase.
