thats nonsense.
i'm all for roads and bridges. i use those. and guess what. my tax money goes towards paying that. as well as the police, fire fighters, teachers, military and everything else.
i already feel i pay too much. the roads are shit. i live in ohio. by the time they are patched efficiently its winter again and the cycle renews.
when a candidate is deemed socialist in america it basically means they want to tax people who are more fortunate to help those less fortunate.
thats nonsense.
and people always try and say shit, like uhoh you are someone who would benefit from these programs, but i've never benefitted from shit, i've never received any form of help from the government, and i don't wish too. unless you count my dogshit education or the fact i use public roads. got me! socialism!

Of course you've received help from the government...A SHIT TON OF HELP lmao did you even read what I wrote?
You lack a basic understanding of what socialism actually is.
And btw the idea of taxing the rich more is not an idea based on 'we don't want them to have so much money', it is essential to have a proper middle class, which is essential for maintaining an economy. America does not have a middle class. Taxing the rich more would go a long way toward creating one again, which would in turn benefit EVERYONE...the rich and the poor alike.
