I’ll bet most people don’t know who Thomas Peterffy is, but out of every $2500 of American wealth, his share is $1. If you’re an average American, your share of that $2500 would be less than one-thousandth of a penny.

Tax the Damn Billionaires

There are about 338 million Americans. Elon Musk could write each of us a $1,000 check and have $25 billion left over for “walking around money.”

Tax the damn billionaires already!

The combined wealth of the 4 richest Americans now exceeds $1 trillion.

Can we tax the damn billionaires yet?

The world now has 18 fortunes of over $100 billion. Collectively, the holders of those fortunes control over $2.5 trillion, more than 1 in every $200 of global wealth. Context; there are 8 billion humans on the planet.

Tax the billionaires!

The 4 wealthiest Americans are closing in on $1 TRILLION in combined wealth. That’s greater than the total wealth of the populations of several entire states.

Tax the billionaires!

The Walton family now controls $400 billion of wealth, while half the country lives paycheck to paycheck, or worse. American exceptionalism!!!

Hey look, we’re on the verge of our first $400 billion family! Congratulations, America.
