My preference would be for the government to stop spending money like the debt and deficit don't matter.
Since neither party seems to think that's a good idea, more tax revenue has to come in. It makes more sense to get that revenue from a smaller percentage hike on multi-millionaires than a large percentage hike on people living paycheck to paycheck.
Not exactly a radical proposal. Like I said, it doesn't dissuade people from getting rich and the lifestyle impact to them is minimal or nonexistent.
Giving a fiscally irresponsible body more money isn't a solution. It's throwing gas on a fire.
