You can’t cut any taxes or programs to fund your idea. Nothing else in your government is going to change. It can’t be a tax that you avoid somehow. The money comes from you and similar people in your situation. Don’t try to get around it in some way.
What would you pay more taxes to support?
Single p(l)ayer healthcare.
Pre-k childcare
Court room staffers

One of the reasons billionaires can “clog up the system” is because Judges are actually really overworked.
In Trump’s Florida case there were only 5 judges who could potentially handle the case, 2 of them were retired and temporarily filing in to keep the system moving, and 3 of them were already booked out for the rest of the year, Eileen Cannon was a 50-50 draw for Trump in that district.
Many cases plea out because it would take so long to go through the system, that between the waiting for the start of the trial and not getting time served it’s less time to just take a plea.
