Related: Robert Reich posted earlier today that Tesla paid ZERO taxes on $5 billion in sales (earnings?), so that’s just fucking great.

What if I told you it's possible to tax assets you own, not just money you earn?

Wealthy people make money by simply collecting interest off of owned assets. You and I are the ones who must earn income by selling our labor. By taxing income and not assets, poor people are forced to subsidize the existence of the wealthy.
