Government already owns 40% of what everyone earns in the US (see government spend as % of GDP is about 40% now). If that's not enough to pay for stuff, nothing ever will be. And it's much much higher if you're living in a blue state where salaries and COL are much higher, not to mention their state taxes are higher.
Taxing the wealthy is not an effective means of helping people. If you taxed every last billionaire in the US, 100% of all the wealth they earned over the last 50 years and gave it to every member of the US, split evenly, and divided by 50 years, you'd get a pitiful small number of about 200$ per person per head. (2.7 trillion total billionaire net worth in US / 300 million / 50 )
