Tangentially, I really dislike the right wing obsession with "tax relief". Taxes aren't axiomatically bad! You should be getting something for your taxes!

I'll pay higher taxes if it means free (at time of use) health care, transit, libraries, public spaces, etc. That's going to be cheaper than paying for all of that as individuals.

People would rather save $100 in taxes even if it means paying $1000 for shit later.
