More colleges are looking at emergency housing solutions, including have students sleeping in alumni’s homes, napping pods, Airbnbs and even an assisted living facility.
Not directly but yes, where I live some parties are proposing exactly that.
At the provincial level, there is Québec Solidaire that plainly says they want to get 30 billion a year from the 4000 richest individuals in the province (in French). They have gained some popularity in the recent years but mainly in urban centres. The general public doesn’t want them as a government because “they are woke socialists with no experience and they will ruin the economy with their pink tinted glasses”.
At the federal level, there is the NDP that recently proposed a wealth tax. It’s the party that fought and gave Canada universal health care in the 1960ies. They also recently helped us get universal dental care (apparently teeth wasn’t universal in the 60ies). Unfortunately, they also never formed a government as they are “dirty socialists that would surely wreck the economy with their irresponsible ideas like taxing the rich”.
People in my country and in my province have the option to elect a party that is proposing exactly that. They just don’t because of FUD.
Countries (and their citizens) will desperately not vote to tax the rich. It’s the last thing they will do.
I don’t recall ever seeing those options on a voting ballot.
☑️Tax the rich
☑️Don’t tax the rich
Have YOU ever seen those options on a voting ballot??
