And your point is?

Bernie Sanders’ tax plan would impose annual tax rates of well over 100% on the richest 400 Americans

envy + resentment against achievement + punishing achievement + rewarding parasites = leftardism

Sanders plan would have billionaires taxed more than they earn!

Nitpickers are using real math to attack senile Bernie, who can't subtract 2 from 2 and get the correct answer.

His idiot voters don't do real math, which is why they like Bernie.

#exemptocrats in congress and unions excluded, as usual?

In any company that has salespeople the percentage paid to the salesman increases as his sales increase. This incentivizes people to do better.

Why is our nation doing things the OPPOSITE way?

Apparently a great number of wealthy people have already vanished in France. You’d think commies and libs would wise up.

That will only get them and their money to relocate to another country.

Let’s see if they actually take George Soros’ fortune.

In today's world of inverted morality, there's a certain kind of logic: illegal immigrants in the US receive tax "refunds" for what they haven't earned.

A certain kind of logic, the kind that concludes that 2 + 2 = 5, as George Orwell observed.

God forbid they survive on 11.75 million a year. Yieks. How will the function? This will never happen because unless they did total wealth, most millionaires have so many ways to hide their earning that it’d be useless.

[napscoordinator]

Good grief. This would only include individuals making this kinda money.

You act like that’s a bad thing. Most are liberal anyway and there’s nowhere to go as the United States has the lowest taxes in the world.

“”Emmanuel Saez and Gabriel Zucman, the Berkeley economists who’ve advised Sanders on his wealth tax plan and the authors of a new book on inequality,””

Sure hope someone is busy researching these two goons for their contribution to inequality - their residences, automobiles, salaries, holdings, investments,
TAX RETURNS.... Only the stupid gather at Berkeley...and get paid handsomely for it. I assume that means UC Berkeley...

That’s not even close to being true. The United States does not have the lowest tax rates in the world.
