You just sent "1." That's not an argument, that's surrender. Let me give you the real problem with your position: morality isn't about relative wealth gaps. It's about consent and rights. Billionaires earned their wealth through voluntary exchange, not theft. Poverty exists because of systemic failures, bad policy, and lack of opportunity, not because rich people exist. Taxing billionaires into non-existence won't fix those root causes. You're confusing "inequality bothers me" with "inequality is immoral." Those are entirely different claims. So which is it, or do you have an actual argument?
