Agreed. But let's ensure we get the wording correct.

Tax wealth income equally.

Because just saying tax the rich. Allows the rich to claim we want to increase higher income taxes. Leaving the left arguing with people who should be on our side.

They do this intentionally to divert the argument from real wealth. Because they know their arguments against taxing wealth fall down when openly challenged. So using higher income earners to distract the argument. Saves them defending their real income source.
