    These guys like to include things like payroll taxes, and SS payments, etc. “I pay millions in taxes, just not out of my pocket.”

    Yeah, Skippy, we want what’s in your pocket, too, because whatever you paid in payroll taxes, it should have been triple. That’s money that should have gone to your workers, so they’ll get it in the form of government services like health care and free college instead.

      I want whatever it takes so the aberration that is billionaires never occurs again, and the existing ones are asset-stripped to the point where they’re merely too fucking rich.
