    Gates has gone on the record a ton of times saying that the more wealthy you are, the more taxes you should be paying.

    Also, don’t kid yourself. If the US government taxed him appropriately over the years you’re talking what? Fifty billion? A hundred billion total? The US spends over six TRILLION dollars a year. You think they’re just an extra like five billion a year in tax collecting away from free school lunches or Healthcare for all? We already have the money in the US to make things better for us. Our corrupt government system is what’s holding that up. You aren’t going to get extra help by them getting more in taxes.
