Steyer is the only candidate who has said he’d vote for the billionaire wealth tax, and he’s also said we need to go even further. Under his revenue plan, he’d raise taxes on corporations and other billionaires to fund schools and healthcare.

Don't believe billionaires. The rich are inherently untrustworthy which is how they got rich. Tom Steyer is a liar.
