About the billionaire tax.

Just think, there several dozens of people who are worth multiple billions of dollars, that are terrified that a single digit percentage of their wealth may be taken away from them to help the less fortunate among us. What kind of a sick bastard to you have to be to think like that? These people are criminally insane.
