It's "tax wealth, not income" that made me decide to switch to Warren. [View all]

One of the commonest complaints about Warren is that her "plans" are not do-able. But the numbers are there if, as she says, we let the wealthiest keep their first however-many-millions and take 2 cents from each of the next dollars. She's the only one to propose paying for things that sounds like it would work. And with the wealth gap, the time is ripe.

Some people say it's too complicated. How do you calculate wealth? Her reply is that it can be done. "These people have stables of accountants that do this all the time." (Not an exact quote, but close).

What's wrong with this argument?

Then, the bottom line for me, is that, as she says "we have problems a lot bigger than Donald Trump." I figure with climate change looming we have to go for broke. We have to work really, really hard to get every Democrat to the polls in those swing states AND in the states with winnable senate seats, and then do BIG THINGS. The alternative is not an alternative. Will Biden's incrementalism reduce carbon fast enought?
