I had a long debate with a Trump voter where I basically backed them into agreeing with this completely, and socratically walked them through the answer being to tax them, and they immediately went to "but that's socialism!"

Polling: "Do you think the rich have too much political power in the U.S.?"
Yes: 80%
No: 8%
Independent voters are 81%/6% on this; even Trump voters are 68%/18%.
Maybe a political party could lead on this issue.

Even if you've never been on a boat, and never plan on being on a boat.... This still needs to worry you! 80% of the world's goods are transported by boat at some point in the supply chain.
Cargo ships would be impacted by this, and it will then impact our supply of essential goods.

Today was the last day for Candidates to file for a place on the ballot for the March 3, 2026 Primary in Texas. I am exhausted, but joyful. Every race in the county has a Democrat in the Primary, and for the first time in 1 or 2 decades, every statewide office has a Democratic challenger.
