Of course we can tax billionaires (permalink)
Billionaires are pretty confident that they can’t be taxed – not just that they shouldn’t be taxed, but rather, that it is technically impossible to tax the ultra-rich. They’re not shy about explaining why, either – and neither is their army of lickspittles.
If it’s impossible to tax billionaires, then anyone who demands that we tax billionaires is being childish. If taxing billionaires is impossible, then being mad that we’re not taxing billionaires is like being mad at gravity.
