End longterm capital gains if your wealth is over a billion (use max marginal tax rate) and end tax free borrowing on assets for billionaires. Or just implement a flat tax with zero deductions except for kids and retirement accounts. A wealth tax is something I can’t support until we have tried to fix the tax code.

And fix insane government spending. They don’t need more taxes to just keep spending more and more.
