We could, you know, use some of this tax revenue to pay doctors (and nurses and others) better.

Hell, the 1% could just invest this money back into their businesses, even, if they're so worried about it. It's an expense, then.

We're in the middle of the worst wealth disparity since the 1920s and it's accelerating. Anyone who says we should just let the rich get even richer is either stupid or disingenuous.

Or one of those rich that stand to profit less.
