Uh...not all Liberal's agree with Tlaib? "Liberals" are not some monolithic group, just as conservatives aren't. We all sit at different points on the political spectrum.
Here's what I'd say, our progressive tax system is askew. We are at historic lows in the upper tax rate since our Income Tax system was implemented. Can taxing the upper class fund everything? No. Does it need to be increased significantly? Yes. Honestly, I'd rather that money simply go to balancing our budget and/or paying down our debt. The services we ask of our government cost $$. We should be paying for those services in real-time rather than borrowing consistently.
