Yeah, I feel like there needs to be much clearer messaging how to cover the costs, which is to say tax the rich. Here in Germany, a third of the wealth is owned by the richest 1% of the population. Whereas 1.3% of the wealth is owned by the poorer half of the population.

Meanwhile, poor people vote for populist parties, because those give them an answer, which is that <insert marginalized group> is at fault.
Which is, of course, inhumane, a logical fallacy and non-sense, as those have barely any money themselves. But when you need a solution, it’s still a better answer than none.
