Extreme wealth and extreme poverty have increased simultaneously for the first time in 25 years. Billionaire wealth is booming, while millions struggle to survive. Let’s end this era of #SurvivalOfTheRichest. It’s time to #TaxTheRich to #FightInequality.

@antonnewcombe Funny if you do make more or get a nice raise it’ll bump your tax bracket and you’ll pay more in taxes so does that raise actually help? No

@GarySayers20 @antonnewcombe Hello Gary. This is true for the majority of people, but not true for the super-rich. Over the past 40 years governments have rigged the tax system so that the 1% pay as little as possible, while shifting the burden of tax onto the rest of us.

On which basis you took this survey? Rich own wealth, create wealth but they won't spend more than 3% of wealth on their food, life style.. Wealth curculates among employees, creating new opportunities, new innovations, maintainaince of organisations.... Still people like hate it

I’m all for reducing poverty, as it has over the last centuries. But tinking that just ‘taking from the rich’ somehow magically makes everyone else better off is a massive logical fallacy that has never worked and can be easily dismantled when you think about it for 2 seconds.

Let’s end the era of Blacklisting countries responsible for <5% of global tax losses & hold the largest tax secrecy jurisdictions to account (the US, Switzerland, Singapore, Hong Kong, Luxembourg, Japan & Germany) - none of whom have ever been blacklisted or otherwise penalized!!

Taxing the rich heavily will discourage investment and innovation. Instead, better governance/zero corruption should be emphasized. What's the point of taxing billionaires just to make more billionaires through public funds as it is atm?

Our species' whole concept of money needs to be rethought. These unfathomable billions and trillions don't exist, but our economic systems focus on them so much causing the value of normal people's money to decline. That's a major driver of inflation.

Taxing the rich will only increase the price of the services they offer. Boycotting them and then funding replacements: contracted and signed to remain reasonably and affordably priced is how to defeat them.

Global capitalism is the cause and the only thing that can fix it is ending global capitalism!
