It's always sold to them as a tax on the rich so the poor buy into it. And it usually is when it comes to income taxes. It's the usage taxes and sales taxes that the poor just don't see how it affects them too because they're told it affects the rich more since they buy and use more stuff... Not that they necessarily do, but that's the pitch.

I'm honored that you follow my work.

Yeah, I try to do that at least once every couple dozen comments or so. Can't just be a dick all the time.

Also billions in unsold bonds that the state is supposed to issue. I think there's currently 80 billion currently sitting on their books that they can't sell right now cause the interest rate it too high.
