How? Tax the rich with a state wealth proceeds tax.
This tax would apply to the richest 4% in the US.

California voters are working to put an initiative on the ballot that would create a one-time, five-year 5% tax on billionaires in the state. A fraction of their wealth that would reap lasting gains for decades.
Let's do it.

Trump's businesses have filed for bankruptcy six times. Never pausing in the grifting and scheming.
But everyday families saddled with medical debt from no fault of their own and entirely due to a failing health system?
Sorry, you have to carry that record forever, damn the consequences.

Did you know that women are far less likely than men to consider running for office? And are far less likely to be asked or encouraged to run?

It's far higher! Many families struggling to pay for basic expenses dont qualify for SNAP. Income limits are low and don't vary based on how high or low living expenses are. Especially true for those living in areas with a higher cost of living.
