that they pay higher taxes that would then be distributed to poor Americans.
Huey Long's Share Our Wealth program proposed a wealth redistribution plan that would heavily tax the wealthy to provide financial benefits for the lower income groups. It sought to set a maximum income cap and inheritance limit, implement a guaranteed minimum income, provide free education and healthcare, and ensure equal distribution of resources. Long believed in reducing the wealth gap and providing economic security for all Americans.
Huey Long's proposed wealth-redistribution program was called "Share Our Wealth" (aka Share the Wealth), with the catchphrase "every man a king."

The Share our Wealth Program was promoted by Huey Long, governor and United States Senator from Louisiana.
No. Although he spoke in much the same manner sometimes. He was a populist Louisiana politician who grew up poor but became wealthy and powerful. He was the governor of Louisiana from 1928 to 1932 and the state's US Senator from 1932 until his assassination in September, 1935. His proposed "Share The Wealth" social program attracted nationwide attention during the Great Depression. It would have used progressive income taxes to take money from the rich and give it to the working class, as a family version of social security. It presaged the modern welfare system.
