    Yes totally agree with you if the rich and ultra rich payed tax in our country we could without a doubt handle this amount of people.

    But the problem is that they aren’t. They aren’t because government (at least here in France) give them many tax gift etc but even without that you can’t tax a starbuck that is reporting only deficit because all their profit goes into buying product to starbuck netherlands. We live in a globalize system where anyone with enought money can evade tax legally.

    In a world where politicians would do this job for career but for the good of the people I would think taxing them would be possible. But the politicians won’t attack their biggest supports.

    With that assumption all the remaining thing to do is to control more the incoming of people BUT give a lot more social to the one coming in the country.

    And to be clear, I would like to live in a world where we could share the wealth in a better way but when you look at where the world is going I can’t force my self to not believe in it.
