Just to give a sense of the insane scale of billions of dollars…MacKenzie Scott got about $38 billion after divorcing Bezos in 2019. She has become the world’s most generous philanthropist, giving away over $19 billion…and she’s currently wealthier than she started.
Just. Tax. Them.

That’s not gonna do anything in the real world even though it sounds like it friend. With this example in particular especially since this is the same kind of thing a lot of companies in the US actually are. A promise of future revenue, not that they make anything at all really now. That’s why they can’t tax em. there is no money. Only a promise of money in the future. Everything else is debt. They rely on those companies to employ people so they can tax those instead. It’s sick but it is what it is. A lot of these guys should have never been allowed to operate here. Shares aren’t real money. They can’t use those to pay due taxes and the employees take most of the real income they do get so this is why they tax that. It’s nothing more than a bet we are going to lose. Amazon fails when the majority can no longer afford anything btw. When other companies die, they also lose AWS revenue which is most of what they even make in the first place.
She didnt “get it”. It was hers.
The US government doesn’t need or use taxes to pay for anything. It creates (spending) and destroys (taxing) USD. All you’re asking is for the US government to destroy USD. What you really want is for the US government to create USD by spending it on things like universal healthcare.
Just tax them, so GOP can send the money to defense contractors and Palantir? Leave her alone if you want to support philanthropy
