I've never posted a single post advocating helping billionaires. In fact, I think that all income should be treated more or less the same as wage income, and that inheritance taxes are just fine and the range should be lowered in fact.

If you had ever lived in the 3'rd world you would in fact come to realize that the best thing if you are well off is to live in a country where everyone is well off rather than being a rich person with desperate people around you. So it is very much in the interest of the well off to help their neighbors also become well off. I'll admit that many rich don't seem to understand this. Most likely because they have never lived around poor people.
