Why do so many plans such as this exist which serve to enrich our government with so much more funding when they are currently incredibly bad at spending what they have? The US spends more per capita on education than many countries who are ahead of us. Construction of public transportation is filled with corruption and inefficiency. So many tasks still require snail mail or physically going and waiting in a line when they could be done online. Why don’t we focus on getting our government to spend effectively before giving them more to spend?
You're begging the question of whether both are problems. There are plenty of people who would argue that the US Federal government already has plenty of income.
