To "elevate the dialogue" a bit, I'm struck in this Cooperman-Warren letter, as I am so often in these dust-ups, by how much what billionaires respond to isn't the details of tax policy, but the respect their labor is given. http://fm.cnbc.com/applications/cnbc.com/resources/editorialfiles/2019/10/31/CoopermanLetter.pdf …

Odgovor korisnicima @ezraklein @KelseyTuoc
But Elizabeth Warren/Bernie Sanders supporters don't want to kiss the asses of billionaires -- and might have enough votes to get the higher taxes without the compliments. So a stable policy equilibrium might be higher taxes and unhappy billionaires.
