I assume a lot of the hesitancy behind “just get the government more tax revenue!” is that it is unlikely to solve any problems that affect normal earners. Sort of like adding lanes to a highway, it doesn’t solve any traffic issues. They just plug up the new space.
“Give them more tax and hope they do the right thing with it” isn’t going to fly for anyone. I imagine those struggling will be just as frustrated with a significantly richer government.
