It is a very dangerous idea to seek a fairier distribution of wealth by taking it from the rich. If you doubt it go ask Venezuelans or Cubans if it worked out for them.

Sounds like a pretty straight-forward idea to me. How else best to achieve a fairer distribution? "Trickle down"?
FYI most countries already do this in the form of somewhat progressive taxation. Some however do this more than the US (say, the great majority of Europe), and they do pretty much fine.
I also don't see how this is "dangerous". For who, the general population? The socio-economical system? The environment?
Zuck can pay no taxes by donating his money to his wife foundation - something not really possible for regular taxpayer. WTF wealth distribution is this?
Rich paying their fair share is a good start.
