    they simply won’t cut to the heart of the problem

    It’s a big thick fucking problem. You’re talking about an entire $32T economy’s worth of millions, billionaires, and - I guess now - trillionaires to carve away. And the problem continues to grow with every booming economic cycle. Sort of the paradox of democratic politics. The thing you presumably want - strong economic growth and domestic prosperity - creates the people you hate.
