Because society added a "going in public" tax for assholes like him? We could do it

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

i follow, but there's a bedrock legal principle that the government can't levy a tax on one person. (basically they don't want the government picking on individuals) can't remember what it's called, but we'd need to make it broad enough it's not focused specifically on him. which would lower the effectiveness of the Billionaires In Public Gotta Pay Me Money Because Fuck Them tax
