I don't think people like you should pay more taxes. The problem is at the much, much higher levels. The concentration of wealth like Musk, Bezos, and others have, should simply not exist.
Here's the criteria: Your wealth level isn't enough for you to have an oversized power over society. People like Musk have and they are not elected by the people. This threatens democracy itself.
> People like Musk ... are not elected by the people.
Untrue.
Everyone who bought a Tesla voted, with their dollars, to give Musk this wealth. Everyone who owns Tesla stock voted, with their dollars, to give Tesla this wealth. And everyone who voted, with their votes, for representatives that gave EV tax breaks voted to give Musk this wealth.
The man is rich because of economic and political cause and effect. Don't pretend the world that made Musk eye-bleedingly wealthy is somehow disconnected from the world of our collective actions.
The issue isn't their economic power by itself. It is their outsized political power that derives from that economic power. The more political power the oligarcs have, the less power all the other citizens have.
