People have FEELINGS about this piece on billionaires. Some of you agree we should have no billionaires. Some of you think you will be a billionaire someday and are advance-defending your future class. Let's discuss: Wednesday, 11 a.m. chat on Twitter. https://t.co/tzy9AyEZEI — PolitiTweet.org

To clarify, I criticized Buffett. I will never criticize a buffet. Or, for that matter, a bouffant. https://t.co/Yp6r13PRHe — PolitiTweet.org

There is no way to be a billionaire in America without taking advantage of a system predicated on cruelty, a system whose tax code and labor laws and regulatory apparatus prioritize your needs above most people’s. https://t.co/tzy9AyEZEI — PolitiTweet.org

Warren Buffett made a name for himself as the Good Billionaire by championing higher income taxes. We recently found out why: He is perhaps the most accomplished of the billionaires at accounting practices that leave him with almost no income. https://t.co/tzy9AyEZEI — PolitiTweet.org

.@BernieSanders and @ewarren did a great service advancing the idea of a wealth tax. But it’s time to go further than their plans, which would have merely slowed billionaire wealth growth. It’s time for an erosive wealth tax that would shrink fortunes. https://t.co/tzy9AyEZEI — PolitiTweet.org

The reason to tax the daylights out of billionaires isn’t just to pay for things. There is intrinsic value in shrinking gargantuan fortunes. The sway plutocrats have over public life is inconsistent with a one person, one vote democracy. https://t.co/tzy9AyEZEI — PolitiTweet.org
