Let's begin with this question: How do you suppose one goes about "earning" fifty billion dollars?You don't have a problem when the covetous greedily demand that someone else's "excessive wealth" be forcibly taken so that they can benefit from what they have not earned?
Please answer that and we'll take it from there.
Ask Bill Gates for one.
Seems that he hs the answer you are looking for. Then of course you would have limited his income to only 20 mil and that would have eliminated all the charitable work he has done.
I guess that is one of the unintended consequences.
Just for clarification, your 20Million dollar limit, is that yearly or as a total wealth for life?
Would you also limit the choice of cars you could buy? Seems like you would since only basic transportation would be required. Any thing else would just be a blatant display of wealth that only makes the poor feel bad about themselves.
The more I think of your ideas, more I see that you are a flaming communist that makes even Stalin look like a Henry Ford.
