Why should the workers settle for only higher taxes and slightly more social programs, the workers deserve everything because without the workers there is nothing (furthermore without the capitalists there is everything).

Because we do not fight under conditions of our choosing, we fight where we stand.

Taxing the rich is a short-term solution, but it's one that we can do RIGHT NOW that would be a step in the right direction. You can't just quit capitalism cold-turkey without a bloody revolution. You have to take steps to transform society in a gradual manner.

And yet most forums will ban you even say the word "guillotine".

They got nation-states by the balls. They'll never let you tax them. At most there will be some concession made that just makes them look like they did something, how the ultra rich always do. Unfortunately liberal pacifism isn't nearly enough.
