3. The billionaires

need the income to buy more politicians. I wonder what the banks are paying to the Convicted Felon for this program designed to hold those at the bottom down. Education should be free. We can afford to educate every child through college. We just need to grow a pair, vote for progressives and pass a wealth tax of, oh, say 20%. As a matter of fact, how about a tax that reduces wealth to a couple hundred million, maximum. Billionaires are the bane of society, a cancer of greed we need to remove. No one has that kind of wealth without criminal activity being a large part of the portfolio. They got it by hook and crook.
