A billionaire I know once told me “My taxes are so low it’s obscene.” There should be a #WealthTax of 2% on assets over $50M & and an additional 1% on assets over $1B. Our government’s groveling at the feet of the ultra rich is the surrender of our democracy to oligarchic rule.

There’s nothing that prevents Buffet from paying more now. He complains about it then pays zero for five more years

What year was this?

Missing some zeroes there. 20%/100% is better.

Should be 100% on assets over $1bn. No one *earns* that level of wealth.

Tell me the name oh but you can because he probably doesn’t exist.
