    To do my best ELI5::

    They don’t want to pay ANY taxes; they want you to pay taxes.

    It doesn’t matter if stuff fails; in fact that’s a feature not a bug. The very rich will pay for the stuff they need, and they DON’T care if you or everyone else suffers…. If you are not rich that is your own fault.

      You were correct until tbe last sentence. That might be an excuse occasionally but it isn’t actually part of the thought process. They simply dont care if you or everyone else suffers as long as they get what they want.
