No one is trying to take the $60 an hour you make coaching. The way Bezos or Gates or Zuckerberg make their wealth is not at all similar to how you or I do. If you want to take the conservative argument, Gates taking my tax dollars by selling his computers to the government is not a voluntary transaction. He then takes that money to lobby the government so that I have to give him even more of my tax money.


If I provide significantly large value to enough clients (i.e. I make a lot of money) then the state will take 53 percent of my marginal profits.

As far as pushing back against crony capitalism and corporatism goes, we are in total agreement.
