2% tax on assets over $50M and an additional 1% on assets over $1B. They’d be the first to tell you that they’ll never even feel it. #WealthTax
Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk have more wealth than the bottom 40% of Americans — COMBINED. We need a wealth tax.

90% tax is less than they use to pay when America was great. We could afford everything & everyone lived great, we stopped gold backed currency, taxed the people higher, the rich lower. Now we're a mess. Let the rich leave that want to. They're parasites anyway.

If they were to inject that shit back into the economy it wouldn't be as much of a problem as it is, but they horde it. I don't even know how you could even possibly spend as much money as those two have.

What is so purly evil about this tweet is it ignores the fact that it's an individuals wealth. What makes it reckless is the assumption tax dollars benefit the needy vs the bureaucracy. If they don't feel it, they should donate it (which many do).

My father in law passed recently. He barely had any savings and the state still will tax him. Why do we solve problems by stealing people’s earnings, living or dead.???

Didn’t consumers give them all this money in the first place? Now, we need more laws to get a tiny piece of it back? Everything we consume gives a thumbs up to the use of our global and personal resources. Stop feeding the beast...

There is a growing group of multimillionaires advocating for a wealth tax. We can afford it. We are Millionaires for Humanity.

Problem is, we need them to feel it. Too long has this unregulated wealth been allowed.

why stop at 1 percent? billionaires have no purpose so let's effectively ban them by seizing all assets over a $1B
