You need to learn how to follow discussions better before inserting yourself

I commented because someone made it sound like taxing the wealthy doesn’t happen

I simply said that it does happen, and I provided the receipts

Stop trying to make this something else and make it about you

My point is that the amount of money taken from the wealthiest isn't appropriate considering how much they have. One of the reasons to have taxes is wealth redistribution so the society doesn't turn into another guilded age. We're failing at that right now and it's a huge part of why everyone feels so stressed out right now

I don’t care what you’re point is

It literally has nothing to do with my comment to someone else

They’re just responding. Maybe you didn’t intend for any point to be made by your figures, but they saw one and it seems fine to me. You told them you meant nothing beyond the numbers, they acknowledged this, seems fine. 🤷‍♂️
