I'm concerned about your particulr privilege here, why should I care about people who are wealthier than you, it's you who can take care of that, isn't it? It's a race to the bottom after all. If you claim that billionaries should not exist, I definitely claim that you are not allowed to own a house in the middle of Amsterdam (I think you should start by moving to Diemen, then we'll let you know if that's enough), and I definitely claim that you shouldn't be wealthier than an average citizen of, let's say, Bangladesh. It definitely will lower the barrier for them. By the same standard that you apply to billionaires. Your arguments about two extremes and how the tax should be designed to not affect your lifestyle specifically is no less a pure bullshit coming from a privileged virtue-signalling and comfortably-living european.
