        That’s what this comment thread is about. Take a nap and reread it.

        Seems more like a criticism of billionaires

        If you don’t like billionaires, tax them.

            Capital gains, luxury sales taxes, taxes on property and holdings, those are all pretty basic and don’t even require new taxes, just rate changes.

            Then there’s new taxes, things like progressive taxes based on value of unrealized gains (currently before SCOTUS), which could include stock ownership over X amount of stock, etc.

            There are more ways to tax people than can be listed, realistically.

                  It was a joke. I’m sorry I’m not funny. It comes with being autistic :(

                  You are kind of an asshole.

                    Saying true things does not make one an asshole.

                    You’re just unhappy with the truth and taking it out on me.

                  I’m definitely far from a republican. Pretty heavily on the left side of the spectrum, honey.
