@carolannie they support taxing the rich more heavily. but they tend to justify that (like Bernie too!) in terms of “paying their fair share” to “finance government” (which is actually a bit incoherent, not totally wrong but has a lot of complicated nuances).

i don’t know of any center-left liberal who has averred publicly that certain extremes of wealth are simply incompatible with meaningful democracy, and we should tax to clip and then prevent those extremes. i hope i’ve just missed it!
