Reb Eliezer, sorry about the misunderstanding with the “listening to elders” (although I still don’t agree with you regarding Trump) and thanks for the explanation regarding terumah and maaser.
Let’s round up what Jews were onligated to give in times of Bais Hamikdosh, lets say it was 25% it’s still not 40 or 50% and especially nowhere near 70% that some Democrats/Socialists/Communists want the rich people to give. The healthiest economies are capitalist economies in addition.to the fact that excessive tax is legalized stealing. A government that want to “equalize” everyone’s income is a Socialist government. A Socialist government is a corrupt government.
