Once again, a billionaire focuses on income: something only workers are forced to have. Billionaires only have income if they choose to have income.

Billionaires obviously do not need to earn wages in order to survive. If they do, they choose to do so.

And they are not required to invest their money. They do that voluntarily for the obvious reason that it makes them more money after taxes. They 100% control whether they will have any income at all.

None of the rest of us get to make that choice. Yet, isn't it amazing how income is the test for the amount of taxes we pay. The wealthy control the rules and they have chosen income - earned by workers - as the measure of how much everyone shares in the cost of operating society.
