...liberals think that workers and investors will keep working and investing because (like honeybees) that is what they do, and that the "good stuff" will just be there like always, no matter how many times they rob the hive.

Liberals are like a "Slinky". Totally useless, but somehow ya can't help but smile when you see one tumble down a flight of stairs!

re: "How many corporations will stay
in business when their taxes are
more than their profits?"

Since when do liberals think about things like that?

Corporations expected to fund the Hawaiian "basic income" will raise their prices substantially... ideally, only in Hawaii, but maybe everywhere. Some will leave the state. Ultimately, Hawaiian vacations will become a whole lot more expensive, so fewer people will take them.

And perhaps THAT is what this is really about. Environmentalists would love for Hawaiian tourism to fall off a cliff. So would selfish fruitcakes like Larry Ellison. Remember when he tried suing locals who were LEGALLY accessing their own property?
