Look around you, at all the #### going on that your taxes pay for. Just like businesses, they've also all had their costs go up, so the logic that taxes stay the same doesn't make too much sense especially given we have pretty clear signals that our health care can't handle any stress on the system or we have to shut down society. Take a look at our education levels, have you talked to a young person lately? They're idiots.
Like, maybe you should pay more taxes so that you can continue to live in one of the top cities (literally, out of thousands and thousands) on Earth.
And I'm kind of a right leaning guy, but the hesitation to any tax increase seems myopic, short-sighted, selfish and a bit disconnected to me.

Children are being treated in trailers after 24 hour waits in the emergency room, many of the unhoused are becoming increasingly more unstable and violent, the school system is more concerned with positive education about nazis and banning clubs than class sizes… and that’s apparently just fine in some people’s books.
