A little bit of hyperbole? “creating world peace” is considered the most hyperbolically hard problem problem that people literally use it as a comparison to point out something might as well be impossible.

Taxing the rich is not impossible it is rather simply a choice about how we choose to value human lives in a society. Stopping war in comparison might as well be considered impossible next to policy choices of how to structure tax rates on the rich.

I will admit though, taxing the rich would go a longggg way towards making the world a more peaceful place especially when workers organize with an explicit understanding of how the working class everywhere all over the world is intimately connected in the same essential struggle, Shawn Faine’s outspoken and impactful support for Gaza as the head of the United Auto Workers union is a clear example of how workers organizing for their fair share of their labor can lead directly to a more peaceful world.
