Again, then who pays the taxes? The middle class

They’re already the ones paying the taxes. The billionaires aren’t. That’s the whole point. Either they contribute finally or they leave and nothing changes. Either way, what’s the downside?

They aren’t paying the taxes because they’re already using loopholes. Raising them is not the way

If they’re already not paying taxes and raising them would force them to leave then, again, there’s no difference except we lose a bunch of asshole billionaires. So that sounds like a net gain to me. I’m sure Russia would welcome them.
