    If you took half of all the billionaires wealth in the US it would be worth 1 year of IRS tax revenue. Or two year’s of our deficit. Then what?

      The point is requiring them to pay a higher percentage because they’ve benefitted more from the way society is put together. Not to end all other taxation.
