Michael Bloomberg's "Tax the Poor" Plan...

.
.

Yes, Mike Bloomberg supports taxing the poor a good deal more. He's an honest man.

Most of those who see government as "the solution," rather than the "problem," which it is, think the same way Bloomberg does, but are politically astute enough not to say it aloud.

Bloomberg DOESN'T mean raising payroll taxes, etc., he means taxing choices HE doesn't like. In Bloomy's view for instance, "Make sweets and sugary drinks more expensive and dumb, poor people won't buy as many and they may live longer."

The problem is that this view runs completely counter to individual liberty...which this nation's Constitution is predicated upon. It IS however, very much in line with the views that B.F. Skinner put forth in "Beyond Freedom and Dignity" (https://www.amazon.com/…/0872206270/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_U3…).

Michael Bloomberg is a pompous, arrogant "Nanny State" supporter.

In Bloomberg's and other Leftist's view, the poor need NEITHER freedom, nor dignity, they merely need government assistance.
