What a bunch of stupid assholes. You need to fight to tax the rich, not abandon the concept.

This looks like one of those "well, duh" scientific studies that feels obvious but hasn't necessarily been done before.

Kin to "heterosexual men are aroused by lesbian porn" or "support for banning trans girls from sports decreases among those who actually know any."

Basic fairness says if the rich aren't paying their fair share, we should either raise their taxes or lower everyone else's. (Which could lead to hyperinflation for all most of us care, except that the rich are better suited to fleeing inflation.)

It's not obvious to me, I can't relate at all to people who would see the rich dodging taxes and think "there should be no taxes".

Ngl, I am pretty strongly opposed to my tax dollars funding these fascist assholes. I'm not OK with my money funding an unelected pedo.

The unelected pedo also opposes income tax. The solution is not to abolish income tax but to remove him and elect people who want to tax the Rich.
