The meetings may be tense, but they won't budge, and they will be condemned for it.
Rightly so, the cowards

"Over 300,000 excess deaths have been attributed to austerity, which also saw
significant rises in child poverty, homelessness, crime rates, health
inequality, and a decline in life expectancy."

#taxtherich in which way, if any, are the rich taxed in your country?

The focus of my question lays on business' profit tax, tax on wealth, tax on inheritance, flat rates vs. progressive rates, taxes paying for social benefits etc.

For there to be too many dollars, or pounds sterling or whatever, chasing too few goods and services - skewing "supply and demand" and causing runaway inflation - national spending has to exceed productive capacity. That's why every nation that has ever experienced hyperinflation, had to have the supply side of its economy destroyed first. That hasn't happened here in the UK, nor (yet) in America.

There's no reason to cut spending, it's a political choice by the wealthiest.
