I’m sorry, but how can you be upset about frontline workers making a living wage when Jeff Bezos made $13,000,000,000 in a single day during the pandemic?

Not giving them tax breaks for the sake of trickle down economics...That's the wealth cap we need
-
That would be a modest proposal. It should be the starting goal, as it is much more manageable to achieve. Still, there is no good for society related to unlimited personal wealth, especially while it remains the root cause of others' inability to have their basic needs met.

They don’t need a wealth cap but they need to be taxed like us poor folk.

"Wealth" is fundamentally unstable. People make and lose billions on paper in the stock market without even making any trades. Say I told you your house was worth $1 trillion to me. That would technically put your wealth on paper to ~$1 trillion. How would you cap such a thing?

That's an interesting point. Though I imagine it could effectively come from various regulations, instead of a "cap," per-say. Whether that be higher tax rates, limit on annual income, something based on liquidity of assets, etc. I am not claiming to be an expert on the subject.
