she literally doesn't know when she's beaten.

or when she's won.

as a matter of fact, does she have any sensory apparatus known to medical science?

I'd definitely read a book about reagan being thrown back in time to medieval romania and being staked through the heart by a peasant mob, or back to late 18th century france and being guillotined by a peasant mob

there is absolutely a % of people that were only in for hillary becuase they thought the traditional systemic advantages would only allow her to defeat trump (even though she basically helped pave the roads for that system).

the destruction of inevitability and third way economic systems not being the panacea to electoral victory would convert anyone on the fence, imo.

I guess in theory I don't have a problem with just heavily taxing wealth/assets and allowing labor income to be super high, since apparently you're spending a ridiculous amount of money in ways that don't increase your wealth/assets.

In practice, since such a high wealth/asset tax is highly unlikely in the foreseeable future, any remotely feasible solution is definitely going to include some increased tax rate on people making six figures, particularly relatively high six figures like you make ($250k is likely very high relative to most people making six figures, who probably have salaries in the $100-200k range). Or maybe it's better to think of it this way - no household actually needs anywhere near $250k/yr, so regardless of tax scheme it would definitely make sense to give a significant portion of that income to people less fortunate.

The reason people are reacting negatively is that, to most people, $250k is an absolutely insane amount of money, and it's difficult to imagine why someone with such an income wouldn't immediately agree with paying a higher tax rate. Even if there are other people who should be taxed even more, anyone making that sort of money could definitely spare a significant amount without much negative impact to their lifestyle.

let me double back on this: the reason I’m focused on the 1%, or .1%, or whatnot, isn’t simply a matter of “we can’t afford government programs without raising taxes” - noting that this isn’t necessarily true, what with MMT. It’s also not about redistributing wealth as a function of people being able to afford things. It’s about wealth as being able to control and direct labor: about control of the economy.

When Elon Musk decides to spend hundreds of millions on going to Mars, he’s directing a portion of labor towards that, instead of curing disease, etc. It’s one thing if we as a democratic society decide to fund space exploration instead of experimental medicine; it’s another when it’s one person deciding to do so.

Whatever else, high-wage labor doesn’t present the same problem.
