I personally do not think we are going to shrink the deficit or bring in huge amounts of revenue by taxing the mega wealthy at high rates, but do they deserve to pay their fair share? Damn right they do. But as Lee said that can only happen when we as a society decide and figure out how to hold politicians accountable. Tax codes need to be rewritten period. It's unacceptable for American companies like Netflix and Amazon to pay $0 in Federal income tax. Netflix made $845 million in profit in 2018. Amazon made over $11 billion in profits. Neither owed a dime, but people like us are forced to give up 35% or higher in Federal income tax. Sounds fair to me.
