Does it include bonuses? Elon doesn't actually get paid a salary for being CEO of Tesla. He gets stock as bonuses if he meets goals. They just fought to pay him the largest bonus in history at $56 billion (more than the company has ever earned in profit). They also just setup a new bonus for him that would pay out $1 trillion in stock to him... That new package would put his pay at 1,000,000:1 to the average employee.

Probably should do something about the various loop holes that allow them to access wealth without paying taxes. The collateral backed loan thing is a big one.
I'm sure it will sail through both houses unimpeded! 😉
how fucking stupid do you have to be to introduce the "pay oligarchs less" bill to the oligarch cheer-leading squad

Rashida Tlaib and Bernie Sanders try to tax the rich to help normal people? Yeah, the other members of Congress aren't going to allow that.
