IMO, there are two characterics to these liberals to remember:
1. They have convinced themselves that rich people get rich by taking/cheating money from good hard working poor or lower middle class people. The got rich by screwing the little guy. Or they inherited their wealth.
2. They also assume or have convinced themselves that all rich people and/or corporations are corrupt, more corrupt than any government agency who would spend these higher taxes. So that in their mind outweighs the govt corruption.
3. Finally, the ends justify the means to most of them. As long a tiny amount of good is done, it doesn't matter than 90% of the money is embezzled or wasted. Some good was done and after all, the people running things are good like minded people who understand the goal.
I'd like to see an end to govt welfare and money give a ways simply to show people just what privately run charities can really do.
