I don’t believe it. They won’t actually take the wealth of the billionaire class because they’re the ones funding the Woke agenda.
This is an attempt to shake the money tree of the billionaires for campaign donations.
Exactly. The real left has wealth. They don't need income. So as long as the only taxes under consideration are income taxes they are in the pro-tax party. We need that party to become the income and wealth tax party so all those private jet liberals wake up and smell the confiscatory coffee.
We know that liberals want to tax "the wealthy" but someone or some group has steered them away from taxing wealth toward taxing income as a proxy for wealth. When was the last time you heard a liberal say "the high earners are not paying their fair share of their earnings." No. They say "the rich aren't paying their fair share. we need to raise taxes on the rich."
Either give Elizabeth Warren credit for not falling for the bait and switch, or blame for not realizing that the whole "tax the rich" thing was just a ploy by the owner class like Warren Buffet to kneecap the potential competition.
