Lots of hypotheticals in that system he describes.

I don't think anyone is suggesting the rich should not have benefits from being clever enough to BE rich....paying more taxes can still leave them better off by far than most of us.

I think a guy who makes $3 million profit can learn to live ok on $2.3 million
