A lot of leftist view taxes as a good thing, when taken from those who can afford them

Taxes have never been the issue. How they are used is. But that gets obfuscated so that the 99% shoot ourselves in the foot

Taxes are DEFINITELY an issue when I pay more taxes than many billion dollar corporations.
