Not a problem nodi. I would gladly pay a little more in taxes, if I get a responsible government in return it will be money well invested

We're not talking about a little more, and socialism is not responsible government.

You will pay more. 5% more to SS for starters. Then there's the higher tax on capital gains - in the unlikely event you ever see any of those again - and on dividends (ditto) and unless you turnover your existing retirement acct to the SSA, you'll have taxes on it in the future.

The bad part is it'll hit all the rest of us too, not just you dumb Democrats.
