You can make lots of positive changes that impact people’s lives in good way without raising middle class taxes.
But you cannot build a European-style comprehensive welfare state or any of its main pillars.

Wow. Lying in order to convince millions of people to put themselves and their families in mortal danger pays quite handsomely, it seems.

Any city or area that can't get their NIMBY problem under control should just be given back to the descendants of whatever Native American tribe lived there beforehand and they get to make the rules for a while. The locals can start making rules again when the tribe says so.

I think people forget that 50 years ago American households had smaller houses, fewer cars, ate out less, etc.
It's easy to get by with less money if you have less stuff.
