I keep hearing about a “fair share” which is vague. What is the exact percentage that is a “fair share” for say someone with $10M?

Maybe if we can all agree on a number then we can figure out how best to collect it.

I'm not concerned with people with that little money. If you've got $10M, you're rich, but you're not part of the problem rich. The three walmart heirs are worth $180B between them. Jeff is worth that by himself. This isn't "being good at business" it's hording. I'm concerned with Billionaires. 800 people who control $3.4T in assets. I don't want to make them poor, I am completely happy if they remain obscenely rich, but you just can't have that much of the pie.
