Problem with the government is not a income problem, it's a waste and abuse Problem. Dirty secret of every government agency from the top to the bottom they waste money, steal money and are incompetent with money. Raising taxes will do nothing beside transfer wealth from the rich to other rich people that work for the government. Also dirty secret of universal health care is cost management. Basically makes doctors government employees who won't make millions of dollars a year. But 100 to 200k a year. Nurses and everyone in the healthcare field will have to make less also to make universal healthcare work. Which then will have a domino effect on college's and the pharmaceutical companies forcing many to bankrupt. This is why saying universal healthcare is the answer and actually doing it are very different things. It would be a very messy transition.
