By the way, a tax of up to 5% on the world’s multi-millionaires and billionaires could raise $1.7 trillion/year.

We can't afford NOT to tax the rich.

@rbreich yeah, but we all know the Republicans want the poor to pay it!!
@dhill @rbreich most democrats too...
@jasper @dhill @rbreich Not... sure where you got that... but ok...
