Warren's #WealthTax plan calls for 2% over $500M, 1% more for over $1 billion. No one at that level of wealth would see any difference whatsoever in their lifestyle, but millions of people would see a fundamental difference in their lives based on what we could do with the money.

Correction: her plan is for 2% over $50M, not $500M.

Yes, I think that the Democrats need to run a platform that highlights that. Big difference between someone that makes a million and someone that makes 500 million. Things are going to hit a boiling point when it comes to the growing wealth gap if shit doesn’t change.

Dumb. We do not need the rich to pay for programs at the federal level. Taxes don't fund federal spending. Warren is lying to your face, and you celebrating, what a joke. Stop perpetuating Neoliberal Propaganda. Taxes don't fund federal spending. youtube.com/Q1SMjeuyF-Y

Bernie's wealth tax is better; starts @ a lower amount, has more brackets, has higher taxes at the top (up to 8 cents instead of 2). Any1 who believed the propaganda that Warren had "a plan for that' while Bernie wanted a pony helped keep this corrupt, unequal system in place.

Isn't that what Bezos makes in a day?
Elizabeth ("Im acapitalist to my bones") Warren should be ashamed to ever again show her (two)faces in public She contrived to publicly ensnare/denigrate Bernie for her own squalid political gain

And those percentages could honestly be higher, on lower income levels... but it’s a good start 💁🏻

It should be much higher and at a lower income.
