LOL. By taking that line of thinking to its logical conclusion, there should be no taxes and no government. That's not going to happen, no matter who's in char

  It's absurd even without taking it to its logical conclusion. There's no inherent value associated with what he does, the amount of money he "earns" is pretty arbitrary. The only way you can really judge it is by comparison to other people doing the same thing. You can compare to people doing other things, but this is at best an extremely crude measure, and borders on meaningless for people with extremely high incomes as he has. Taxes affect him the same as anybody else, so there seems no basis for complaint there—he's not being singled out or treated unfairly—and given that at his income level, the amount he earns is almost completely arbitrary, there doesn't seem any basis for saying that he doesn't get what he "deserves." In other words, despite his pathetic attempt to claim he's being "wronged," really he's simply saying that he wants moar money, and will threaten and browbeat people to try and achieve that end. Business as usual I suppose...
