Your first is an appeal is an appeal to the extreme fallacy. A law like that would never pass in a functioning democracy, and if our democracy isn't functioning, then I would say we have bigger problems than a single person be taxed of all their earnings. Your second point would matter if making income is that was how people became billionaires. That simply isn't the case. The vast, vast, majority of people with a 9-digit or more net wealth did not get there by income. I also advocate for other taxes and methods of taxation that would handle high net-worth individuals/families. I'm not looking for a perfect system, nor am I looking for a system that appeases everyone's idea of fairness, I'm advocating the system that I think is best for America moving through the 21st century and the threats it will face this century.
