    As I was saying in my reply above, being greedy is not in the interest of the rich anymore. To enjoy their money, they need a world that does not collapse due to fascism, climate change… Which are partly avoided with public action funded by taxes.

    The rich that refuse to pay their share are being selfish to their own detriment.

    Not to mention that the tax effort is not shared as well by everyone… The poor spend considerably more percents of their worth and income to pay their taxes than the rich. Looking at how much they contribute in absolute value is meaningless. They’re richer, of course they’re going to pay more taxes.
