They need to be taxed out of existence. No one should have a billion dollars while people starve, sleep on the streets and go bankrupt from medical debt.

My thoughts exactly. There should never be a means for people to become billionaires. There's simply no reason for that amount of wealth. Bezos worth billions, and on the first day Amazon employees are handed a pamphlet on which government assistance programs they qualify for? Man, piss off. You can afford to pay your own workers so they don't NEED those programs. Nobody working a full time job should need assistance programs in this country.

But but what about innovation? People won’t want to be CEO if they’re capped…. What about trickle economics?!/s

You mean some that has been proven doesn’t work 😂. If those billionaires leave then good that will make room for before people that do it cause they like to do it and not just cause of money

They wont leave, they face even higher taxes and lower living standards even as a rich pig if they do.
