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

That would be enough to lift 2 billion people out of poverty and fund a global plan to end hunger.

We can't afford NOT to tax the rich.

@rbreich but (e.g.) they'd only have 9.5 billion and not 10 billion and cause capitalism we can't have that!

Jokes aside, tax the rich.
