So we need to articulate how the global benefits of those billionaires’ tax money being pooled and spent on commonwealth, is better even for the billionaires than if they’d each individually kept that money.

If they pay their taxes we don't feed them to pigs. How's that for a benefit?

That's plan B, we can't lead with that. But believe me, it is on the table.

Okay, here's my suggestion for plan A: We feed them to pigs and take it all. Regardless of the tax situation.
