Not at all. Your solution is literally steal from the productive people to give to the unproductive. My solution is to make taxes equal such that there's 0 attempt by the rich or poor to steal from the other. Whether you're rich or poor should have no impact on the taxes you pay. Everyone pays the same taxes.
So people who aren't privileged are not productive? Nah, the most productive people on Earth are working class people. You have it all backwards.
Not everyone is the same. And not everyone benefits from those taxes the same amount. That's the problem.
Cool, so under my system the productive (no matter who you define it as) and the unproductive pay the same. You're still trying to redefine your own people to justify stealing from others. I want to end all the theft no matter who you are.
Sales tax and tariffs is literally theft. EDIT: And the kind that people can't afford.
All taxes are but we need a bare minimum. Sales taxes are the fairest of taxes and tariffs are needed to protect the working class, unless you want to be paid peanuts and all production is offshored.
