Massachusetts passed a 4% millionaire's tax last year. Now every public school student is going to get free lunch
(www.businessinsider.com)
Good social welfare also benefits the entire society, not just the people in need of assistance
And in a few years the lunches go, the taxes stay, and everyone is disgusted at the poors demanding stuff for free.
Ah yes, how dare "the poors" want to eat.
Nah I think the taxes will be gone in less than a few years because the rich will throw a few thousand dollars at lawmakers and they'll change it for the rich.
