Original Note:
Misleading. A one time confiscation of 100% of all U.S. billionaires' wealth, totaling $5.529 trillion, would fund the U.S. government for a mere 10.7 months, given the annual federal spending of $6.2 trillion Which is growing every second. https://inequality.org/great-divide/billionaire-wealth-up-88-percent-over-four-years/ https://ips-dc.org/total-u-s-billionaire-wealth-up-88-over-four-years/ https://usafacts.org/state-of-the-union/budget/
