FT News Briefing · From “What Next”: How “Tax the Rich” Went Mainstream · 25 May 2026 podcast

And what I don't want to do is give them an excuse to say, well, I'm hated here.

I'm picking up and leaving or I'm going to build a moat around my castle and I'm going to stop giving.

yes but you could also make the argument he bought a 238 million dollar apartment he has a zillion employees here he's going to have more employees here he has huge he has a huge construction project that's going to take place over the next few years here like all of my point to you is all of these things can be true at the same time but this tax it's um

Yeah.

You hear it, you feel it, you see it.

And again, I'm not saying let's cry for them, but that sentiment is real.

Remember, after the UnitedHealthcare CEO was murdered,

you couldn't even find private security.

These companies were, rich people were, companies were scrambling to hire private security for their executives.

And there wasn't enough to go around.

And I'm saying we need to do something collectively to lower the temperature because we shouldn't be at a place where anyone is fearing that they're gonna get gunned down

ever and we shouldn't be in a place where people can't afford to live and i'm saying these two extremes i don't want to live in a world where one wins and the other loses if either one of these two groups win then we all collectively lose and we have to find a solution

And I agree with you.

So my point isn't to the rich person.

My point is to the lawmaker.

who for a $25,000 donation allowed the carried interest loophole to still exist.

My argument is to the lawmaker who said, yes, every person who's building a AI data center who can write it off

completely, right?

And so they're not gonna have to pay taxes for years and years.

My argument is honestly, it's more to the lawmaker of like, then let's put together some smart, impactful legislation to actually even the playing field.
