Excuse me, Mr. and Mrs. Liberal, why should any millionaire, or billionaire, be taxed more because they are rich?
Didn't they work to make their earnings, just like you do Mr. And Mrs. Liberal have done?
Instead of creating a Wealth Tax, why not just be more responsible with how some of current Politicians, balance their individual Budgets?
So Mrs. Warren, why not entertain the notion, and tax everyone fairly and equally with a "Flat Tax?"
And create a new Flat Tax law, that includes, gathering taxation from those individual states that don't have an income tax?
Alaska, Florida, Texas, Nevada, South Dakota, Washington, Wyoming, Tennessee, and New Hampshire?
https://www.investopedia.com/financial-edge/0210/7-states-with-no-income-tax.aspx#floridaIt's Political Theatre, when individual Politicians, lament about creating this or that "Tax," when a fair and equal Flat Tax option is staring them in the face each day?
And the sad reality about Taxation is this, I can't recall the last time, that I've heard any Conservative, entertaining the notion of a "Flat Tax," as well?
It's like, some of the Conservatives, and Liberal Politicians, are both publicly scared of floating the notion about a Flat Tax, before the Public's ears, and eyes?
They are afraid, of upsetting the income tax apple carts of the voters, from these states?
Alaska, Florida, Nevada, New Hampshire, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington, and Wyoming?
So if any of those Conservative, or Liberal Politicians, really want to make a Nationwide effort at fixing the taxation and revenue problems with the United States, the Flat Tax notion has been staring both Political parties in their faces for years?
So why not place the Public good ahead of your individual Political careers, and work for the overall Public good, and create a Flat Tax law, that benefits the overall Public good?
Remember, you work for the Voters.

Elizabeth understands this well. I do not think she seriously intends to introduce this tax in case she is elected; most likely it is a way to pander to the masses, and will not result in anything of substance.

Would your "Tax Ideology notion," benefit the United States as a whole, or just yourself, and those other individuals who share in the your Tax Ideology notion?
I think that those who are poor, if they are purposefully poor, because of their own choice, then they being poor is fair and equal balance unto themselves.
Because their efforts, made themselves poor to begin with, regardless of their race, their sex, or their nationality.
They self compromised themselves, and their compromised self, shouldn't have to rely on other individuals, to bail themselves out of their own self caused economic problems.
"I would compromise if the flat tax included incentives for the poor and did not screw them over so bad. It is far from economic freedom."

The wealthy didn't work more so they should deserve their earnings without any tax on it instead they stole our wealth and build their empire. You might have heard about 'economic inequality' which is a result of the wealthy getting richer. They don't provide healthy working conditions for their workers and make them work overtime without any extra paycheck. they are producing so many goods and consuming our natural resources at such a rapid speed that our world is destabilizing. The wealth tax is not just a tax, it is a penalty that every billionaire in the world should deserve for the exploitation of the working class and our planet.

Not everybody is poor because of their own decisions. People are born into poor families and have no idea how to get out of being poor and people are born in areas with terrible education. The parents of poor children will almost never help their poor children pay increasingly high college expenses. Paying debt for life isn't reasonable; higher education sometimes isn't just a "choice". If you tax everybody the same amount, the poor remain poor and will not be able to leave poverty when taxes would take huge sums of their income.

I've seen the homeless in Colorado getting high on weed, how did were those poor homeless people able to afford their weed?
"People are born into poor families and have no idea how to get out of being poor and people are born in areas with terrible education."
How many SCHOOLS are there across the country, giving ANY person the ability to go to school, in order to help themselves get an education, and to help themselves from become free from their previously poor situations?
"The parents of poor children will almost never help their poor children pay increasingly high college expenses."
ANY KID, can depend on themselves, to work before going to college, to help themselves fund their own college education.
Even it it means going to a much less expansive community college.
"Paying debt for life isn't reasonable; higher education sometimes isn't just a "choice". If you tax everybody the same amount, the poor remain poor and will not be able to leave poverty when taxes would take huge sums of their income."
, you can make excuses for those individuals, for whom you're lamenting over.
The TRUTH is, anyone has the ability to better their own lives, if they are taught the right tools, or learn to become dependent on themselves, and stop listening to people, who tell them, that they deserve this or that because they believe in the poor stereotypes, that some have been preaching to them, in this or that poor neighborhood.

It's not a stereotype, it's a fact.
Some of the poor and homeless, are purposefully poor and homeless, and smoked weed, while being homeless and poor, thousands of other people, see it nearly everyday in Denver Colorado as well besides me.
"instead of communities to fix their local schools? Unreasonable. This would concentrate everybody into a few areas and then prices would raise even more."
Nope, that's what you're stating to me.
So your word's are yours to treat, however you mind decides to treat them.
Again, your word's are yours to treat, however your mind decides to treat them
Look at how many people in the United States, have filed fraudulent claims, after a natural disaster, or a hurricane has come through an area in the United States, where people were killed, or were displaced from their homes?
You try to be fair to people, and they're robbing their own communities, and the taxpayers, out of that same Disaster Relief money, that wasn't theirs to begin with?
Waste Fraud, and Abuse.
Any U.S. citizen, is going to benefit, from what they have honestly earned for themselves.

Show me, where no child in the United States isn't able to get an equal and fair education?
"Not when you imply that all education is equal EVERYWHERE. Poor communities tend to have poor levels of education in their high schools, which is a requirement to attend college."
Then the School system, that some of the Second Graders, that your maybe alluding to, those School employees have some explaining to do then, to the parents, and to the communities then, wouldn't you think?
"Some poor middle school children can't even do 2nd grade math. You think these children can live the dream and go to college?"
"They would have to leave their poor communities, again, unreasonable."
The way that those School employees are managing their School's and teaching their students, are being unreasonable.
Every day in the United States, there are various Taxation and Revenue coffers, that are being used to fund, those very Schools, and Education in general.
So if there is a funding problem, then I would recommend a state wide audit, to find out why there might be a funding problem, for any Schools or Educational systems, shortage of funds?
Wouldn't that make better sense?
This way those same School or Education systems, are operating at a Reasonable level, and their Second Grade students, are benefiting from a fair and equal education, because the funding is being properly managed.

School choice in the US is fairly limited, for some bizarre reason. Teacher unions push hard against the school choice proposals, using the most abysmal arguments to justify their stance, and as a result many families are forced to send kids to failing schools in bad neighborhoods. Elizabeth Warren recently suggested significantly cutting down the funding and the legal rights of charter schools, and taxing private schools more than ever, to encourage parents to send kids to public schools - all in the name of equality, of course.
The solution to this problem, however, is not to tax the right even more. It is the opposite: to get the government out of education and economy. But this is a very unpopular proposal nowadays, sadly.
In any case, flat tax is definitely more fair and economically justified, than progressive tax. It makes more sense to free up people's money for investment; private investment tends to find its way into education more efficiently than public spending, because, unlike public spending, private assets actually are bound by strong accountability, and simply throwing money at something with no effect has serious consequences for the investment recipient. Quite different from public funds, which can be wasted, and the worst that will happen for those who have wasted it is a lost reelection.

The debt is skyrocketing, the cost of living is WAY up, the cost of health care could/is bankrupting thousands, housing is through-the-roof, education is unaffordable OR crippling, many can't afford a small vacation, many work more than one job. Those Fortune 500 entities are doing FINE! ;-)
The fact that THEY are "doing fine", to some, makes this a "great economy"! It COULD be for the rest of the country who's money they take … if they would pay their fare share! WE wouldn't have to replace the money they take. WE could enjoy a PART of the good economy they've made FOR THEMSELVES.

My suggestion, take your perceptions up with those individuals in charge of the Educational system in your locality.
Their standards should be about bettering the Educational experience for all students across the country.
But if they aren't maintaining that simple standard, then something is wrong, with how they apparently want to manage the Educational system, that they work for.
Hold them accountable.

Americans claim the lowest paid are well able to afford college education, healthcare and housing on minimum wage which is utter B S why do middle class Americans hate lowly paid Americans so much and would deny them even a minimum wage yet cry in outrage when some say that a Billionaires salary ought to be limited ?
Nearly 80 percent of American workers (78 percent) say they’re living paycheck to paycheck, according to a 2017 report by employment website CareerBuilder. Women are particularly vulnerable: 81 percent of them report living paycheck to paycheck, compared with 75 percent of men.
Minimum Wage Workers Can't Make Ends Meet
The majority of workers (81 percent) have worked a minimum wage job, and 71 percent of them were not able to make ends meet financially during that time — more than half (54 percent) had to work more than one job.
To alleviate some financial burden, 83 percent of employers that are hiring minimum wage workers this year (45 percent) will be raising the minimum wage at their organization.

In other words, cross learn, from the other job positions around you.
Be a self starter, outwork the other workers around you, and take the initiative, this way making the management at your job, notice you, as you stand out from the rest of the worker's around you.
This way, not worrying over what someone else is making, because you're making your own money, to fund your own future, regardless of your race, sex, cultural background, or nationality?
