This isn’t directly US politics but seems materially relevant.

Here, let me help you make it relevant.

Imagine what the NAFTA talks look like.

Correction: there are literally no good rich people in this world. Even ones who don't abuse child labor or whatever are still evil simply by virtue of retaining so much wealth (while alive, anyways). It's important to always keep in mind that they have no moral claim to that wealth; when they give to charity, they're giving money that was unjustly acquired in the first place and doing so in a way that doesn't burden them in the slightest. A poor (or even middle class) person giving a single dollar to charity is more admirable than a rich person giving a million dollars.

Jesus even said as much.

Would it be possible to tie property taxes to level of income?
Here is the thing: the income of people who own property is totally irrelevant. If you think you want to maintain a perpetual exclusive access right to a block of land you get to pay society for it, and if you can't afford to do that you get to sell that right. We can talk about the best way to get people who can't afford their perpetual exclusive access to land to exit that, but suggesting this is a thing to be encouraged is right out.

Yeah, Fox and Schwarzenegger are two ex-politicians who were bad at their elected jobs, but who are at least partially redeeming themselves with some grade-A Trump trolling.
