I don’t want to hurt anyone. I think the people at the top of the economic pie generally know what they are doing, have grown their capital because they have earned it via expertise, and making political decisions to hurt the rich ultimately hurts all of society more than the rich person.

Take Elon Musk. Even if you stole all of his money, he would start a new business, and people would back him with capital (whatever is left after the socialists stole it all) because of his background, and it would be successful, and he would be rich again.

You can’t stop talented people from making money unless you use guns.
