Congrats on missing the entire point. The United States’ federal government has AMPLE tax money to fund the government programs that some of the populace want tax hikes to install. The problem is that this country accounts for 1/3 of military spending globally, and roughly 3x the amount of any other country. The government needs to rebalance its budget, not increase taxes just to dump more money in Israel and the military.
