It's better to do nationally. That's why I support Elizabeth Warren's wealth tax. That's just 2 cents on every dollar of wealth. Over $50 million of Elizabeth Warren's wealth tax...would generate $6 trillion, enough to pay for universal child care, health care, and a lot of affordable housing. That's a big part of why I'm running. But that's dead on arrival with the present president. Well, it's not going to happen with Donald Trump, I'll give you that. (10:36–10:55)
