It's because one, he has control over, so naturally, gotta put a stop to that. The other, he's sure won't happen, so it's safe to "support" it, in order to entice rubes into voting for him.
Again I say, this is a sheep in wolfs clothing. He's a more polished fetterman. You should not support him.
He knows a national tax won't be happening.
We wayy past billionaire tax. We need logarithmic wealth tax with soft wealth cap.
While against the one in his own state. He is a two faced centrist, family friends with the Pelosi'. Won't get change electing him.
Get this guy outta here
We can’t trust politicians who are cozy with billionaires. Newsom has deep ties to lots of billionaires, including campaign finance. Billionaires are the enemy of working people and politicians need to treat them at least as a problem to be fixed if they want our trust.
There absolutely should be taxes on the billionaire class: 50% capital gains over a certain amount, limitations on borrowing against stock assets, increased income tax on income over $1m, and no cutoff on social security tax, just to name a few. That class should not exist and taxes are a great way to move that forward.
Gavin Newsom is the type of politician the people that use that "we'd be at brunch right now" line want.
