There are fountains of wealth being generated in this country. But that wealth isn't trickling down to working people. It’s all stuck at the top. Our 'Tax Plan for the 99%' takes on the corporate hoarding class – to redistribute wealth⁠ and raise the floor for all of us. Join us: lewisforleader.ca

    Taxing the rich will generate significant revenue, but that’s not its only purpose. By reducing inequality we can balance the scales of society.

    Very important point that’s often omitted. The capital accumulated by the 1% provides exorbitant power to direct society in ways that serve the 1%. Directly via different markets and indirectly via (legally) buying political power.
