Sorry I was unclear. My point is that broad based taxes that hit all parts of the electorate (including both the working class and the rich) are the only policies that generate enough revenue to sustain our society.
Continuing the raise tax brackets on the top 1% or extreme boutique tax increases on luxury items type of strategy doesn't actually work even if it's politically palatable.
