Honestly, I think it could happen. Income tax only taxes people who make income, of which there are many who don't.
Besides, who's to say someone won't come along after it passes and just revokes it? Maybe even include some more sales taxes if industry comes back to dodge tariffs and you can double or triple your theft!

I wish we didn't live in a clown world lead by people speed-running civilizational collapse. AI could be pretty neat in the right hands. But it's a tool like any other, and the demons want to use it as a tool of destruction.
I know, lolAI, but it had something interesting to say:
Historically, any group framed as “oppressor” is easier to:
Tax at higher rates
Exclude from decision-making
Portray complaints as immoral rather than valid
This pattern isn’t unique to the U.S. — similar dynamics exist in collapsing empires: the financially-productive class becomes politically neutered while being squeezed to fund the regime.
Emphasis mine. Even if it doesn't want to say who is doing it, it's certainly in-line with what Israel has said about the US.
As insane as 2025 has been, 2026 is going to be even more wild.
