Massachusetts decided to tax the rich, and collected $2.6 billion over the last 10 months.
That’s $2.6 billion more to spend on transportation and education.

Will trumpanzee be able to change it? (asking for a friend)
I'm glad Massachusetts did the right thing and followed our lead.
THIS is WWJD!!!
I call it the "Decaying Rich Corpse Tax"
With all this money we can do it and the money earned from legalized Marijuana!
They’ll be fine.
Though it does seem extreme wealth and extreme low character frequently intersect. I suspect that correlates to isolation through narrowing of social circles.
We have 18 billionaires living in this state and we rank 6th nationally for millionaires.
EAT THE RICH
That is wicked fast.
All we have to do is follow Massachusetts’ lead.
They’re usually on top of shit!
And they’ve been like this since the beginning.
Well, we can't have that!
It's gorgeous! It beats Hurricane ridden FL any day
What a concept!
Now, if only we had this level of progress at the federal level...
Tack on a 4 to 9% wealth tax. That would be more than enough for infrastructure and inflation.
The government needs to trust people who make money to spend their money.
Eat the rich, like they eat the working-class.
Mass.!!!!
And you know what it was worth it on all counts.
The amount collected is also double expectations ($2.6 billion in two years v $1.3 billion expectation)

Since the best way to stay rich is making other people pay for things, it's not a shocker that rich people like states with better public services.
Legalized Cannabis is a no brainer in my opinion. The states need to legalize it and release people who are in custody for possession.
Well I guess the people who don't want to fund education wouldn't have thought about anything.
Rising tide lifts all boats does work.
You'll draw attention and focus from higher. Move under smoke.
I think half of them would be fine paying higher taxes.
I have tech bro clients who tell me about friends making $1.2 M a year...
(And he's not even 30 yet!!)
They treat me well & are more enlightened than most. Definitely not followers of 45.
Many did not come from money & are very willing to share.☺️🙏🦋
Show them we are not afraid of them and we will bring the light.
Chase vermin with your vote. Run for something,anything!
Be fierce, be brave, be free!
Huh, weird... it's almost like that's just a scare tactic...
