The richest 400 billionaires have more wealth than half the US population combined (that’s 155,000,000 people!)
They are profiting from our sacrifice and their tax havens. They DO NOT PAY THEIR SHARE OF STATE TAXES. RAISE TAXES ON THE VERY RICH!
The PUBLIC SHOULDN’T PAY for the economic crisis caused by super-rich Wall St. gamblers!
