remember Nadar's platform. 100% taxation on incomes over 100K and your normal tax on income below 100k.

Z, Is it too much to ask that we give 1% of GDP to the countries upon whose backs we've made our fortune?

Seems like we're already doing that by allowing illegals to come across the border, no?

By the way, if your presumption is true, and we've made our fortune "upon the backs" of poorer countries, then wouldn't it be a slap in the face to give their governments 1% of our GDP? And these are governments that aren't exactly trustworthy to begin with.
