    if the goal is wealth distribution, we should really be going to the root of the problem.

    how do these people become billionaires in the first place? wage theft, environmental destruction, corporate welfare, low corporate tax and loopholes, bailouts, poor worker protections and benefits, etc…fight these problems and legislate benefits for workers in the first place instead of trying to take the money back after the fact…

    as much as i love taxing billionaires and seizing wealth, i think getting to the root of the problem is better optics and maybe more palatable to people
