Yes, but this is allegedly 'more fair.'
By 'more fair' we need it justifies the need for yet more taxes in Illinois ... aka, 'redistribution of wealth.'
Done in an honestly pure society , this would be a interesting idea . The problem would be how to pay for it , and Goverment dependency .
The first part could be done by government owned monopolies or stakes in major business . The second is the bigger problem . People who most rely on Goverment are most vulnerable to eventually lose part or all of their freedoms .
Goverment is at best a necessary evil at worst , well just look at our current governments to answer that .
For now this is just another attempt at show me the money. But done right it could be something positive .
Whatever happens it will never cure the poverty in corrupt areas . Their poverty is the result of their dna and their behavior . However much they deny it , they know it’s true .
They destroy everything ( and everyone ) they touch and then blame the status quo and beg for someone to save them from their stupidity so they can then destroy them and then repeat the process .
The recent riots in Hati where they attempted to attack foreign aid workers for the crime of , yep you guessed it “ trying to end their poverty “ being but the latest warning to the world to avoid even thinking of helping them.
If God wanted a perfect society, he wouldnt create Chiraq.
Every Libtard sjw commie socialist blm lgbt must memorize and accept this simple truth and until they do , they will constantly find themselves under siege from their “Privileged minorities “ .
