MORE PERFECT UNION Kylie Jenner is begging us to tax the rich METAMORLIZE Kylie Jenner is begging us to tax the rich. This looks a little crazy right now, but this is what it really looks like.

Regular people living through the worst affordability crisis this country has seen in decades are rightfully pissed off about it. While Kylie is busy flaunting her obscene wealth on social media, Americans are being forced to choose between gas and groceries because the costs of both are astronomical. Gas prices have shot up 50% in the last six months alone, experiencing the highest jump in grocery prices this country has seen in the last half century. And to add insult to injury, U.S. taxpayers are literally footing the bill for Kylie's private jet setting. Private jets make up one out of every six flights. But private jets only contribute 2% of taxes to fund airports, while the rest of us are paying 70%.

By Chuck Co There are a total of 935 billionaires in America, and the richest 15 of them saw their wealth jump by, 33% last year, while the average worker in America is still making $50,000 a year. And instead of giving that wealth away to build libraries or schools or fund working people's needs, the ultra-rich in this country keep shoving their wealth in our faces. At this point, they're just showing us they have too much wealth, and they're begging us to tax them.
