Reading through Bernie's tax proposals, he continually states that the "rich" and "1%" need to start paying their "fair share". For example: "“You have to be prepared to ask the wealthiest people and largest corporations to start paying their fair share of taxes,” he said. So what does it mean for someone to be paying their "fair share" for taxes?
If the economic system ceased to exist, rich people would lose all, and have to join the poor people. Poor people would just go on as usual, scrounging up crappy litle tasks like cavemen. (Have you ever heard that after a nuclear war, humans may be extinct, but cockroaches were here long before us and they'll be here long after us.) So it is 100% the responsibility of the rich to pay for the system. They are the beneficiaries.
If you make over $35k a year, you need to pay 52% since you are in the global 1%. You have to pay for little vietnamese kids making shoes.
