perhaps they are contemplating a “wealth surtax” on people above a selected AGI

means-testing is creeping into everything, part of using the IRS and state taxes in the process of redistribution

sadly, for the progressive utopians,it will never work, even at the point of a gun once guilt, charity, and “moral persuasion” to share the cookies stops working

the socialists and their less refined cousins the marxists want to attribute wealth accumulation to luck or greed

But many wealthy people got that way by being smart and resourceful, if ya know what I mean
