Just responding to #1, because its a bad line. Most people who own stock are just trying to retire.

This tax applies to people with a net worth of $1 billion or greater, which exceeds almost all retirement portfolios

Absolutely nobody that needs their wealth redistributed is having retirement funds in excess of $1 billion. Even if they did, that shit deserves to get taxed because people on our streets are dying from lack of food and water while the rich burn down forests for another cent to their bottom line

People are not dying on the streets from lack of food and water. We have data on this. Less than 30 Americans die every year from lack of food. All of these are cases of criminal abuse of neglect, not people starving on the street.

Look me in the eyes and tell me right now there isn’t a mass crisis of people being unable to meet their basic needs. I genuinely dare you

A crisis implies that theres a sudden spike. Yes, there are Americans who are unable to meet their needs but A.) they’re not starving to death on the streets like you claimed and B.) we are better at meeting the needs of everyone than almost any society in the history of the world.
