I could see districts going either way on them, probably depending on geography and racial makeup. What you'd get away with in Clay County or Baker County is very different from what you'd get away with in Duval. And if you disagree with the way public schools teach kids, that's what private schools are there for. For the record, I would send kids of my own to a private school.


If your kid is making over $10M a year, they'd have to send 70% of any earnings above that $10M mark to the kid next door, not $10M of all earnings. AOC is an idiot and her tax plan is daft, but let's at least be honest about how it would work, shall we?

Please tell me what problem taxing the .01% 70% is going to fix. There isn't enough income there to do anything with. it is just a starting point that will eventually make its way down to the top 10% and eventually the top 20%, but surely never make its way down to whatever percentage are making $174,000 per year.

I already said the plan was daft and it's not like I've hidden my desire for a straight, flat consumption tax. Under the plan AOC is pimping, income above $10M per year would be taxed at 70%. So if you make $10,000,001 next year, only the $1 above $10M would be taxed at the 70% rate. Stop pretending that the government would take $7M of that.
