Jeff Bezos is so much more boring, lame and devoid of personality than a Bond Villain though it physically hurts my brain to try to relate the two in my head.

Nobody wants to double thentaxes on the uber wealthy. We want way way more than double. Personally, I like 100% on "wealth"/"net worth" over 10 million dollars.

After you hit $1 billion, just a total reset to 0. They're all pretty confident they can get there again easily, so shouldn't really be a problem. Enjoy your little spotlight in Forbes.

The world we live in isn't just dystopic, it isn't just stupid, trying to describe all the ways it sucks just makes for a really boring story.
