Why not just make the total SS and income tax rate 0 under $50K (everybody gets it, no change in benefits) and fund it by "printing money?"

The oligarchy might do quite well in the highly stimulative environment.

Just pass laws to keep them from buying the government.

Same would go for a very generous public healthcare option. If you like your stupid insurance then you can keep it.

Back of the envelope I'd say that would cost about $750B a year of our current $3.7T tax take.

Yes we can.

I'm waiting for our Social Justice Warriors For The Entitled to tell me why they don't want a tax cut.
