    For years, I’ve heard people say, “What? You want to outlaw wealth?”

    This level of wealth? Yes. Tax it at 99% above 1bn.

    You won the money game. Stop playing it. Help society.

      My long standing belief is that if you hit $100M of wealth, you should get a nice fancy trophy that says “congratulations on winning capitalism”, along with a 100% tax on all future income.
