Bill Gates and Bernie Sanders met to discuss taxing the super rich
Briefly

"This wasn't my first time meeting the Senator. In the past, I found him quite approachable. I knew that, on lots of issues, we see things the same way."
"We cannot afford to continue this level of income and wealth inequality and we cannot afford a billionaire class," Sanders stated, highlighting the urgent need for economic reform.
"Bernie asked me some hard questions about how much wealth I thought would be enough. We agreed that wealthy people should be taxed more."
"Plans for taxing the super-rich include an annual 1% tax on a married couple's net worth above $32 million, putting the focus on wealth sharing."
