I want millionaires and billionaires and Big Oil companies to pay their fair share.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Friends, I'm angry about what's happening in politics today! Why is it wrong to ask the wealthiest people and most profitable corporations to pay their fair share?
Some billionaires like cars, yachts and private jets. Others like newspapers.
The fact of the matter is it's very reasonable to ask the wealthiest estates to pay their share. We did that since Teddy Roosevelt, a Republican president.
All the political angst and moral melodrama about getting 'the rich' to pay 'their fair share' is part of a big charade. This is not about economics, it is about politics.
Let some people get rich first.
I don't know any real billionaires.
There's a small amount of super-wealthy people that want to maintain their billions and billions of dollars. Those are the people who are really making the decisions.
You can tax the rich all you want. The problem is there aren't enough of the rich.
One of the things I have been preaching around the world is collecting taxes in an equitable manner, especially from the elites.
We like companies that can get big and powerful on $50 million or less and not two, three, four or five billion.
