I support this messaging. Yes, if you are in Congress...there is a high percentage chance that your wealth IS ill-gotten gains through insider trading and flat out corruption with no term limits.
And you can whine about the Trumps of the world being wealthy and getting wealthier. But they DID build things, they bought "hard assets", and the played the system/game as it is currently defined...and it was definitely tilted in their favor.
Meanwhile, I'm not wealthy, but I retired early. I worked since I was 15 (and through college while taking a full engineering course load)...always spent less than I earned...been tithing since I was 30...and constantly ponder how I can leave an inheritance that covers a couple generations and providing for some charities in perpetuity (if they never sell their btc I hope to one day allocate for them).
And I'm still living in the same spec house for 25 years and driving 10 yr old cars. So I DIDN'T get lucky.

and why we should give billionaires more money
