I’ve spent time among the very very poor and I’ve spent time among the very very rich. The gap that exists there should not exist. Some have so much money they honestly don’t know what to do with it, and others have so little money they honestly don’t know what to do.

We need a #WealthTax: 2% on $50M and over, plus an additional 1% on billionaires. Everyone knows it. One of the wealthiest men I’ve ever known once said to me, “My taxes are so low it’s obscene.”

we also need laws that prevent billionaires from inventing their own public health policy and then imposing it on the entire world

That's not going to solve the problem tho. The problem is fiat currency and the elites KNOW that. If you have assets you can avoid inflation and get relatively richer. Inflation hurts the poor & KEEPS them poor.

Democrat(mostly) governors, mayors and Congress(wo)men have made the wealth gap even larger in the last year with their ridiculous and unnecessary lockdowns. Congratulations!
