4 things...
1. No guarantee it'd be one time only tax.
2. I hope this doesn't mean "liberal" billionaires to Florida means support of libtard ideas for Florida.
3. With the loss of billionaires why stop there: go for mega millionaire tax too.
4. A voter approved one time tax proves "democracy" is mob rule which Founding Fathers feared.

Where's the list of Democrats opposed also? Vote for them?
No, you know well that I dont vote for Democrats.
We assume they will do the wrong thing.
Republicans are supposed to be better. Its just that they aren't.

100% screwed ..
Criminal Investigation over HQ renovation from the team behind bigger better make the ballroom greater than the entire Whitehouse
Looks like the money printers are gonna run full speed all the time
WHILE YOU WERE SLEEPING:
The Republican majority passed three Democrat-authored spending bills totaling more than $1.2 billion.
Most of that money went straight to Africa and Haiti in the form of "foreign aid."
Only about 20 Republicans voted NO on all three bills.
The rest either voted yes or conveniently abstained from the roll call.
This wasn't incompetence or compromise.
This was outright betrayal.
And guys, PRIMARIES won't fix this problem.
Because EVERYONE HAS THEIR PRICE.
We've watched the same cycle play out for years.
Challengers get just enough funding to look serious.
Incumbents survive or barely win.
Then, they immediately return to voting for massive foreign giveaways and omnibus bills.
It could be defense contractor PAC money.
It could be Chamber of Commerce checks.
It could be Big Ag subsidies.
It could be future lobbying jobs or board seats.
It could be book deals or quiet assurances of no real primary threat.
The UNIPARTY no longer fears OR RESPECTS we the voters.
It only fears losing access to the MONEY SPIGOT.
And until that spigot gets shut off permanently, these people will keep selling out the country ONE MIDNIGHT VOTE AT A TIME.
Wake up.
Stop pretending the system can be fixed through the same broken process.
It can't.
God SAVE America
