I'm an American with a few horses in this race, and I also want to raise taxes to get rid of billionaires and provide more money to the government.

I'd prefer to use that money for "progressive" things like schools and libraries and parks (voted in 2024 to increase my own taxes on those things specifically, but my neighbors voted against them), but I'd even settle for spending it on the military if it came out of the pockets of the oligarchs to reduce inequality.

Every other country seems to manage it. Those countries also don't have school shootings.
