    Which personal loopholes allow millionaires to become billionaires?

    What do you propose for the tax brackets to be to stop millionaires from becoming billionaires?

    Here are the federal tax brackets currently:

    10% $0 to $11,925
    12% $11,926 to $48,475
    22% $48,476 to $103,350
    24% $103,351 to $197,300
    32% $197,301 to $250,525
    35% $250,526 to $626,350
    37% Over $626,350

    What do you propose they should be that would prevent millionaires from becoming billionaires but keeping with your "no one is saying people shouldn't earn money."

    Cap on individual wealth? I don't even know what this means, given you also claimed "No one is saying people shouldn't earn money". Does this mean that if someone sells a company that they've spent their entire life building and it's worth 2 billion.. they get to keep whatever money gives them a total wealth of 999,999,999.99 but not a penny over? If someone had 900 million dollars, what would be their incentive to expand their business to hire more workers if they get nothing from it?

    Have enough money they and their family needs to survive? What? You can survive on 50K a year... should we make that the cap?

    Where does all this "extra" money go? Are we just confiscating anything over 999 million?
    That's all stuff that needs to be hashed out. There are solutions out there. What they are depends on what we all agree on. What is needed is courage to stand up to the wealthy class.

    PS. People need to hold themselves to a higher self worth than what is dictated by the advertising of luxury brands and depictions in movies. Every single person on this planet is as important as the next. Everyone deserves more respect than they get from the wealthy class. People need to stop being so hard on themselves because they aren't "rich". A person's real worth is not from their wealth. Not everyone wants to be rich anyway. Just comfortable.
