For the record, I don't think focusing solely on taking money away from the richest people is the only way to lift people out of poverty, I think there are many factors that create poverty and that there being billionaires at all is a contributor to it due to the power they wield with it. Mind you, I don't really include millionaires in the "wealthy" category here, I'm talking about billionaires - those with many orders of magnitude more wealth than somebody you'd just consider "rich". I'm certainly not against feeding, housing, and educating people and contribute to efforts to do so locally. I was thinking more along the lines of hypothetically long term eradicating poverty, not how to realistically approach treating it today so that's probably where our wires got crossed.
