I'm a centrist who probably leans more left than right on most things.
I've learned that just because you take more in taxes doesn't mean magically it'll be allocated to the things you find important. I live in a state that current is Republican majority and are spending money on crap I find dumb and sometimes even repulsive.
It is mostly lefties on here calling for more taxes but would you want to give Donald Trump more money to play with? My districts congressman wants to use tax money to put guns in schools. Point being just because you give the government a bunch of new money doesn't mean it will automatically be used for what you think it will be.
