    “I reject the tax that can pass, but support the tax that’s impossible” is the same thing as being opposed to the tax.

      Hell it’s not even about the difficulty tiers, it’s I oppose the one that falls in my juristiction, I support the one that’s above me. Please put me in charge of the country and I’ll support it… or raise the same objection just saying it will drive businesses overseas and hold out for a global wealth tax.
