I'm wondering how myopia is going to help anything, including running a business.

EDIT:

I find it somewhat irritating that this needs to be stated, but helping the economically disadvantaged doesn't mean just raising taxes and giving everyone a welfare check. The narrative has been so well framed.

It could (and should IMO) mean creating a more just economic system while providing a real safety net. Ultimately, this would involve people being educated and able to obtain jobs that pay a decent wage.

There's some tax money involved in that, but I don't think we necessarily need to _raise_ taxes. Perhaps we just need to reallocate a bit from the war chest.

Your response was neither useful nor insightful.

What exactly does this mean? Don't just give me platitudes about better education.
