i absolutely get furious every time billionaires are interviewed about a high tax rate. it's like, "billionaires don't want rich people to have their taxes increased! news at 11!" it's ridiculous.

what's even more ridiculous is that a 70 percent tax on incomes is somehow being called far left. no, that's not far left. far left is we seize the assets of the rich entirely. moderate left is a heavy increase in capital gains tax, tax on millionaires, and a partial asset based tax.
