    treat them how you would treat anyone else… tax the fuck out of them, no backroom deals, if they don’t comply or break the law detain them and publically humiliate them and bring them to jail until such time that they either post bail, or their trial.

    trials for anyone with net worth of 2m+ is done by citizens of the country and a judge oversees… we dictate their future… not their paid judges.

      Instead of a maximum amount, a minimum amount would be more appealing, as I’d rather see fewer poor than fewer billionaires. Don’t get me wrong, I’d prefer to see neither, but the former seems more important.
