You sincerely believe that a modest tax on billionaires that would preserve them being billionaires is "making everyone poor again"? You think this? — PolitiTweet.org

.@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

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

The federal courts cost us $7 billion a year and protect and enforce trillions of dollars a year worth of contracts. Social Security keeps millions of people out of poverty. The government literally invented the Internet. You made a car with an iPad in it. And a space phallus. — 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

If we passed a billionaire tax and, in some cases, instead of getting additional revenue, we got billionaire self-deportations, it wouldn’t be a tragedy. It would be like ordering one donut and getting a whole cake. — PolitiTweet.org
