I think a lot of people are irrationally scared of “socialism” and “handouts”. If a party was like “we’re going to take some of the ultra wealthy’s stuff and use it to build free housing, health care, transit, and public spaces” they’d be like “no that’s communism I’d rather live in a box eating lead paint than get a government handout”
