Classic playbook of “don’t do this or, we’ll do exactly what we already do”. “Don’t tax churches, or they will get involved in politics”. Don’t raise minimum wage or the prices of things will go up".
The super wealthy don’t understand threats.
I can just imagine if they were terrorists with hostages.
“Bam Bam Bam Bam” “rich guy: OK I need a million dollars or I’m going to kill the hostages” “negotiator: You mean those corpses at your feet?”
though, he could actually be on to something in factuality. something that is noted is, there’s giant holes in flock camera coverage on deflock… mainly in super rich areas. If hypothetically the government actually chose to enforce rich people crimes as they do poor people crimes, they might fill in those holes. Of course, that’s also even assuming that if such a tax passed, it wouldn’t be half ass enforced like every other crime rich people do.
