It’s just nice reading everyone ripping this article to shreds. Thanks for making my day brighter.
Taxes are a percentage of profit/income/wealth. If someone is getting hit with nearly a million dollars in taxes I would argue that likely means they need to be getting hit with even more taxes. We tax the wealthy too little practically everywhere in the world, and one doesn’t get millions of dollars wealthy without systemic injustice - not even speaking about hundred millionaires and billionaires who should absolutely have 95% of their wealth taken away and redistributed to the public for the betterment of the species and the planet.
