You have not given sufficient information to answer your question about the person you made up.
Does she believe that Race A is inherently superior or inferior to Race B or not?
A guy just asked me if I am going to vote for Gloria for city council.
I said 'of course'.
He says 'You seem a bit adamant about it AvJoe'. Why you voting for her.?
"Because she is Asian"
Am I racist?. (You don't know what I believe about superiority or inferiority, neither does the guy who asked me the question.).
@AverageJoe1 saidI wouldn't suggest it. They might be collecting for the Boys and Girls Club for all you know or selling subscriptions to Breitbart.
Tell us all, then , we have many readers, that if I am sitting on my porch and 6 mexicans storm my garden aiming towards my house that I cannot lock them in my barn. (control them). Please don't bore us with kidnapping laws. The law will come soon enough and haul them away.
Tell us that. You can do this, Marauder, you can get real, you are not a Bot.

You have not given sufficient information to answer your question about the person you made up (or you in the new scenario).
Does she(you) believe that Race A is inherently superior or inferior to Race B or not?
@no1marauder saidNote that about 1000 times your fellow posters, including you,, have called people racists, including me, without knowing what we believe about superiority or inferiority.

So, if you do not re-write what you write here, you effectively disparage all of your brother and sister posters on the Forum, for having called people racists when they do not know the beliefs of the persons they are calling racists.
Your hole is really getting to the bottom. Query....Can there be a bottom to a hole? Oops. sorry Kewpie, no fun on the forum.
@no1marauder saidOK, we can all agree a win for me on this one. BTW, you would be astounded my gift to B&G Club last week. Yeah, I know. I just hate it.

@AverageJoe1 saidActually certain posters here have unequivocally made posts claiming that Race A is inherently superior or inferior to Race B.
Note that about 1000 times your fellow posters, including you,, have called people racists, including me, without knowing what we believe about superiority or inferiority.

So yes, they are racists.

Back to the actual subject of the thread:
"According to the Institute for Policy Studies, America’s billionaires got 62% richer during the COVID crisis, with the nonprofit Oxfam reporting that the world’s 1% gobbled up two-thirds of the $42 trillion in new wealth created in the ensuing post-pandemic years."
"The wealth tax Shirshikov references comes from the official Biden-Harris 2025 budget proposal, which reads, “The tax code currently offers special treatment for the types of income that wealthy people enjoy. While the wages and salaries that everyday Americans earn are taxed as ordinary income, billionaires make their money in ways that are taxed at lower rates, and sometimes not taxed at all. This special treatment, combined with sophisticated tax planning and giant loopholes, allows many of the wealthiest Americans to pay lower rates on their full income than many middle-class households pay. To finally address this glaring inequity, the budget includes a 25% minimum tax on the wealthiest 0.01%, those with wealth of more than $100 million.”

@no1marauder said25% seems really high for a tax like this. Or I don't understand the metric.

Someone with $1 billion in wealth would be taxed $250 million per year?
