Yes the ones that draw the largest benefit from a society should contribute the largest amount back. If there is infinite growth for some and infinite servitude for others the social contract is breaking, in this way it’s much more reasonable to actually use taxation instead of just standing by while the society that all this wealth was extracted from takes violent revenge to their oppressors.
Without the rest of us billionaires couldn’t exist to begin with, so if their wealth starts breaking our governments, our communities, our collective self determination, which they currently are doing, we naturally should remind them that they are nothing without the rest of us. And yeah the taxhammer is likely the more appropriate tool than the guillotine or the Molotov cocktail.
Their wealth presupposes a largely peaceful society, why should we let them break it. This is for example why GG Art 14 has
(1) Property and the right of inheritance shall be guaranteed. Their content and limits shall be defined by the laws.
(2) Property entails obligations. Its use shall also serve the public good.
written back to back in the same paragraph, the obvious implication being uses of property that go against the public good may be curtailed by the law.
So basically what you are saying is the more successful a business is, the more of it we should steal away from the rightful owners?
