Not a tax. Confiscation of savings/investments/property. “Tax” is on income, earned/unearned.

eff Bezos,Amazon king,richest man in the world,could give each of his 647,000 employees $100,000 and still have $50 billion bucks left.His Whole Foods employees who work 20 hours a week,get health coverage. He’s changing that,now his workers must work 30 hours a week to get health coverage,causing 2,000 of them to lose health coverage !Fluck Amazon !
If Amazon/Bezos hadn’t lobbied and used all those tax breaks, and paid some taxes, I doubt this would be an issue. He knows it’s wrong.
