Why Did a Billionaire Snap Up Homes on a Sandbar in Duluth? - WSJ

3. Kathy Cargill seems to Embody the Privledged and Arrogant Attitude of Billionaires Everywhere.

I have lived in Duluth for well over 30 years. Ms. Cargill seems like an entitled person who thinks she does not have to follow rules and laws that apply to everyone else. This is a residential neighborhood without much in the way of a commercial district. So, her plans to open a sports facility and coffee shop are, indeed, the people's business. Given her penchant for privilege, her next step will likely to be an effort to eliminate public access to the beautiful beach in front of these properties (entirely public).

We have billionaires trying to buy the White House, conducting their own foreign policy (Musk), controlling access to information, and building monstrous compounds all around the world. These people need to be taxed at a high enough rate, so they no longer act like Russian oligarchs.
