First, if you split that money to the 99.99 percent, it will make zero impact. A few hamburgers per person are a lot less than what you think, even if a person with a million hamburgers looks excessively rich.
Second, giving people money does not improve their lives. It can have the negative effect of making them dependent on receiving money, like a big part of Africa is now after decades of outside help. "Teach people to fish, not give them a fish", but this should not be perverted "give them the money to go to college and learn something with no market value".
And not the last, take money from the rich to give to the poor sounds sometime like a justification for rape: give people what they need, even without the consent of the people you take from. Sounds really cool when you tell about Robin Hood, not so cool when you give an analogy.
