There are 7 “centibillionaires” in the US worth $100 billion or more. Each of them can: Give every teacher in America an $8000 raise for 5 years, or wipe out all US medical debt, or provide shelter for every homeless person in America. A billionaire tax should be a no-brainer.

How Much Is $100 Billion, Really?

You think the socialists will stop with the centibiliionaires? No, first they come after them, then the billionaires, then the millionaires (like Marianne), then the middle class until they are no more. Socialism is like a cancer, it keeps progressing.

Or they can give to the charities they chose. And do whatever they want with that money. They earned it. It is their money and their choice how to spend it.

If the Gov used our current tax money more efficiently, they'd be in a much better position to ask for more

How many more people would have health insurance if Medicare/Medicaid were ran better? isn't around 50% of fed budget?

This is most likely Unconstitutional. You are advocating for the seizure of wealth. If you think it will stop at a few billionaires, you should read history. Taxes like these always get expanded.

Taxing them is irrelevant. They should be eliminated, and the associated companies broken into tiny pieces.
