Elizabeth Warren tells Bill Gates she'll explain her wealth tax to him

CBS News

Senator Elizabeth Warren said she would "love to explain" to Bill Gates how much he'd pay under her proposed wealth tax after the world's second wealthiest person said he believed he might pay $100 billion under the levy.

Gates, who added he was "just kidding" after making the remark, is just one of several billionaires who have spoken out against Warren's wealth tax, which would add a 6% surcharge on fortunes above $1 billion to raise money for her Medicare-for-all plan.

He's an enabler of the orange traitor. Gates loves him some no taxation while being a billionaire from Traitor Trump tax giveaways.
