If your cause was just and noble, you would have no need for pernicious methods like this.

How are you going to tax them ? Make them borrow money against their shares, if they can? They just raised money to grow their company and a bank will come along and loan them money ? A company that has been in business maybe less than a year ? lol Will you take their stock if they can’t ? Do you really think each of multiple founders, who started an amazing company in Cali and is now a billionaire, can each just pull out $250m per billion of net worth from their raise ? You know they can’t.
Yes, Mark, that's exactly the plan. And it's not that they haven't thought this through. You pointing it out to them isn't going to make everyone do a double take and then have a good chortle. This is the game. It's wealth seizure, and it's entirely based on jealousy and class destruction, not because the revenue would make any meaningful dent in our debt or any meaningful balancing of our budget.
The truth is you, and most everyone else who supports this, has been duped that raising taxes on the rich is about either fairness or about financial solvency.
It's punitive and destructive and that's the start and the end of it. Take everything from everyone and the government controls all. You have to start with the people who have the resources to resist you.
See, the plan is, when they can't pay the exhorbitant taxes, the left will say "Look these billionaires can't handle their affairs, it's cause they are too greedy, that's why they can't pay, we have to seize their companies now."
Not a single retard you see on social media denouncing "all billionaires," has stopped to think for a second that nearly all the wealth they are bitching about only exists on paper. The rest of it exists buried in the companies in physical assets (like computers, desks, hardware, and rolodexes, etc) that keeps their beloved working class employed.

It's past time we end the relationship between the Union and California. We simply can't allow this. I'm sure SCOTUS will eventually overturn this bill, but who knows how long that will take and what they will get away with in the meantime. We simply can't coexist with these people.
