Just because politicians and rich assholes can get legislation pushed and passed that doesn't mean the people actually want it. Claiming people want what they currently deal withs just because they have "democracy" is a cop-out that has repeatedly been shown to be false across nearly every democracy in existence.

It has 90% public support and rightfully so.

And you don't think there is any problem with that poll, especially when it is in support of the government when ran by the government and had an inherently biased selection of participants from the start? Im sure if I polled people that looked up accounting services if wealthy people should be taxed less I could get 90% approval, but that doesn't mean the overall population supports it.
