In an interview the founder of Scamazon is trying to move the discussion around wealth taxes away from himself and his Epstein class. He's only got one thing right of the "Tax Wealth, Not Work" movement namely, don't tax work. Wealth still has to tax wealth, otherwise it won't solve anything.

Holy fuck, just fucking pay it.

I have to pay, you have to pay, that's how our country works.

I am so over hearing people complaining about taxes. They are inevitable. Fucking get over it and shut the fuck up.

That's not how your country works in practice, however.

The ultra wealthy dodge taxes, the rest of you pay them.

True words. If only workers would listen.

Unfortunately the fat rich fucks have megaphones drowning out all the anti-wealth talk.

They are inevitable.
