.@gabriel_zucman is the tax expert Elon Musk thinks he is. So ignore those musky tweets. And read Zucman on how the billionaire tax would work, if it's practical, why it's happening now, and how to rebut the plutes' bogus objections. https://t.co/gXhO8P51o2 — PolitiTweet.org

Rewatching this clip, I realize that, in fairness, we should also institute a Brown Man Bouffant Wealth Tax. Only fair, @hasanminhaj, to share the hair. — PolitiTweet.org

We can have nice things. And after 40 years of wire transferring money from the bottom and middle to the tippy tops, the way we can have these things is reclaiming some of our resources through a billionaire tax. I asked @gabriel_zucman to explain it. https://t.co/gXhO8P51o2 — PolitiTweet.org

Because the truth is that raising revenue is a relatively unimportant reason for taxing billionaire wealth. Reducing that wealth is a valuable end in itself. No one should have that much sway over the economy and public life. — PolitiTweet.org
