What we need is the complete eradication of all government staff appointed by or associated with the Trump administration. Every Republican who voted with him, every Democrat who did the same.
Once that is done, a Manhattan Project sized initiative of judicial reprisal is enacted towards every single person who enabled the Trump administration. The Heritage Foundation is raided and staff is brought up on charges of insurrection. Fox News and the entirety of the right wing noise machine starts facing hard legal, financially devastating consequences for deliberately lying to the public. They, and all other news outlets are kept on a short leash until the heat death of the fucking universe. Corporate personhood is revoked, corporate lobbying is made illegal, and billionaires are taxed until they are brought to heel.
None of this will matter until the people responsible are fleeing for their lives.
Be careful hitting them too hard in the pockets as it could have pre-WW2 type economic effects amongst hundred of thousands of people who could get really violent and try to overthrow the government (again)
Couldn’t the newly raised tax revenue be used by the government to prop up the economy and mitigate the effects? I’m admittedly not particularly familiar with the effects you mention, nor how they came about.
It’s more so that the economic devastation of hyperinflation after WW1 created a very angry population, and that pushed a lot of people into the arms of the nazis.
My comment was more of a facetious take that the people should just put the wealthy elite 6 feet under, so we dont have to worry about them using their connections to get revenge.

Just guillotine em and be done with it.

You make a convincing point
