I don't think that is what allovernow is saying at all.

So, potentially
- Tax the billionaires down to 999millionaires. Not unethical or counterproductive in the slightest.
- Implement a tax that makes every worker's net income identical. Probably both counterproductive and unethical.
- Implement a tax/UBI system that puts a worker's net income below that of a non-worker. Definitely counterproductive, unsustainable and unethical.
The point that allovernow is describing is somewhere between those extremes.
