Letter to the editor: We need a president with a 'Robin Hood' agenda

Tribune-Review

I am looking for a 2024 candidate for U.S. president who will run on a “Robin Hood” agenda that is similar to Huey Long’s “Share the Wealth” agenda. The platform/agenda would include a one-time “national wealth tax” of 20% on all individuals who have a net wealth and net worth of $10 million and higher. It also would include placing a cap on personal fortunes of $60 million and sharing the resulting revenue that is gained with everyone else in society, especially those who are leading responsible lives.

Perhaps her first priority should be establishing a Canadian-style national health insurance program that will cover every American who wants it.

Addressing climate change and global warming could be next.
