But in a response to an article about the top 1%, you used the top 100 wealthiest Americans as a counterpoint. If you're not trying to make a connection, why bother with the analogy?
- youareawesome 7y agoI never brought up the top 1% and the top 1% has nothing to do with the wealth tax. The wealth tax will apply to all Americans with assets over $50 million, which is roughly ~80K people, or 0.02% of the population.
- jhasse 7y agoThe top 1% has been brought up by the articles title you commented on.
- OJFord 7y agoTo be fair to the other commenter, they were also talking about taking those 100's entire wealth, not just taxing a bit more.
