Waiting for the hand-wringing by the centrist dem establishment worried he will lose votes. News flash—they were never going to vote for him. But he may have energized a lot of disenfranchised people who aren’t regular voters.
Wealth is a limited resource. In order for a handful of people to hoard 90% of the world's wealth, the rest of the world suffers with artificial scarcity.
No billionaires happen ethically - it's all stolen money on the backs of the underpayed.

That's not going to work. We ALL need to be talking about true tax equality. Nobody above a certain income level should be exempt, no loopholes, no tax tables. Flat 20% tax on income and capital gains. No exceptions. Jail time for evaders.
This would fix it. No more tax breaks for billionaires.
