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.

I say we make it 50%

“Oh no I won’t be able to buy the worlds biggest yacht anymore” isn’t a compelling argument against that.

Or even the lower “Oh no I won’t be able to buy a new Porsche every year” boohoo
