Comment on How much money should one person realistically make or have?

Agree. Billionaires shouldn’t exist.
Personally, every penny you have in money/assets/stocks over £1b is taxed at 100% in exchange you get a medal that says “I beat capitalism” and a statue.

Its a compromise. You can have 999 mil as long as you invest back into society thereafter…

Yeah but then they find ways to slurp up the tax money through bailouts and BS government contracts.

Yes, but we are talking tax policy, not how to solve human greed and corruption.

Getting to direct where every dollar goes above a billion is a huge amount of power. A single person deciding how to spend millions or billions of dollars to do what they deem to be improving society? They may do some good things, but a democratic process would probably do better overall.
