Today, thanks to reporting from @propublica, the public is now able to see how the ultrarich avoid paying their fair share of taxes by exploiting loopholes and escaping scrutiny from federal auditors. It’s time for a #WealthTax. It’s time to #TaxTheRich. propublica.org/article/the-se…
Here's how absurdly unfair our current tax system is. #TaxTheRich 
When @propublica calculated Jeff Bezos' true tax rate, it revealed that he only paid a 1.1% tax rate between 2006 - 2018 when his wealth increased by $127 billion. #TaxTheRich
And according to @propublica's reporting, because of how our tax laws are set up, Jeff Bezos actually claimed and received a $4,000 tax credit for his children in 2011, "a year in which his wealth held roughly steady at $18 billion." #TaxTheRich
