What I would love more than anything is a compassion tax. Signing up for it would be purely voluntary. Once you sign up for it then the voluntary side of it would cease. You wouldn’t be able to opt out of it for at least X number of years after you sign up for it. The social programs would all be paid via the compassion tax, and it would be very, very, progressive indeed. No matter what the financial demands of the social programs would be, the compassion tax would suck it out of the volunteers who agreed to pay it. And it would be a matter of public record as to the people who were on the list of being subject to the tax. And when people like Nancy Pelosi have to explain why they aren’t on the list we could all see their dirty little double standards shining for everyone to see.
