Apparently there's a group called Patriotic Millionaires whose purpose is to increase taxes on the rich. Here is their founder Erica Payne at a recent event of theirs, posted by Aaron Rupar on bsky
@Nonya_Bidniss This is great. Cynically I’d call them Survivalist Millionaires because what they are doing is trying to prevent ther heads from being cut off.
@aburtch I don't think that's accurate, although I could be wrong. For evidence I can recall from many years ago various extremely rich people making statements that the government is failing to tax them properly and they want that fixed. They are the minority of rich people, sure, but they do exist. They certainly believe in capitalism, but they don't believe in uncontrolled capitalism.
@Nonya_Bidniss Long story, but I once found myself basically as a fly on the wall around some 1%ers, and I heard conversations that I wasn’t supposed to hear. I am here to tell you that they are absolutely very, very, very, very afraid of the rest of us rising up against them. @aburtch
@OGJester I'm sure that's true for the majority of them. I may not have been clear enough that these folks who believe things should change toward a more equitable tax structure are a few voices in a sea of greed. @aburtch
