Being wealthy doesn’t make you generous.

📉 New @forbes.com data shows only 6 of the 12 wealthiest Americans made the Top 25 Philanthropists list. While some give 30%+, others stay below 1%.

Voluntary giving isn't enough to fix a broken system. ⚖️

According to new Forbes data, a 5% wealth tax on California's richest would still leave them EXTREMELY WEALTHY - you do not need to worry about them. ⭐

When we talk about a wealth tax, the response is often: "That’s class war!" 🚩

This allows those at the very top to frame themselves as the "keepers of the peace," while dismissing the lived reality of millions as an emotional outburst.

Sweden used to be the gold standard for equality. Now, it's a "paradise for the super-rich." 📉🇸🇪

Income tax is failing to capture the extreme concentration of wealth at the top. 📉

@gabrielzucman.bsky.social explains why we need a 2% global minimum tax on billionaires to restore fairness and fund the climate transition.

We are proud to see the "Time to Win" campaign making headlines in The Guardian.

Our joint open letter—signed by nearly 400 people incl. Mark Ruffalo, Abigail Disney, and Brian Eno—calls on global leaders at Davos to finally address the toxic concentration of extreme wealth.

Rutger Bregman challenges the wealthy: The entrepreneurs who changed history didn't just donate on the side—they went "all in."

Today’s crises demand the same. Stop protecting net worth. Start building a legacy.

Time to win back our democracies before it's too late

ICYMI, we joined @oxfamgb.bsky.social and @mills4humanity.bsky.social in signing a letter urging leaders at Davos to tax millionaires more.

Read this week’s Closer Look to see how taxing the super rich can help win back our democracies.

We agree. It’s time to pay up.

As billionaires and leaders arrive in Davos, protesters from the "Everybody Hates Elon Campaign" are greeting them with this massive banner near the Zurich airport.

Part 1: The Billion-Dollar Leak Why Our Local Communities Need a Wealth Tax

Our global economy is a "leaky bucket" and resources are draining away from the places they are needed most.

This is exactly why we advocate for a wealth tax. We need to plug the hole.

We keep hearing that taxing the ultra-rich is "complicated." It’s really not.

If you have the cash to rent Venice or send pop stars to space, you have the cash to pay a fair tax rate.

#TaxTheRich #WealthTax #MillionairesForHumanity

"Paying taxes is a f*****g privilege."

Comedian Josh Widdicombe gets it. We get it.

When tax revenue can lift 450,000 kids out of poverty, the "fear" of taxing the rich becomes absurd. It's not a burden. It's the rent we pay for a functioning society.

Tax us. #TaxTheRich

#WealthTax #TheLastLeg

The ultimate argument against a Wealth Tax is the threat of "capital flight." ✈️

But as @martynalinartas.bsky.social points out, research shows billionaires are more likely to die than to relocate their lives to another country.

Roots matter more than rates.

#WealthTax #TaxTheRich

It’s time to loosen billionaires’ stranglehold on humanity Taxing the super affluent at rates that would still leave them with enough to maintain lavish lifestyles could generate enough money to resolve many societal issues, from health to hunger to global he...

The reality of our global economy:

❌The bottom 3.5 Billion people: Struggle to afford food and basic medicine. 💰The top 62 people: Own more wealth than all of them combined.

Richard Wolff calls it "beyond obscene." We call it a broken system.

@mintpressnews.bsky.social

Economist Esther Duflo explains how the richest people on the planet legally avoid paying their fair share—and the massive impact a small change could make.

A 3% tax on the world’s 🌍 3,000 richest people could raise $400 💰 every single year.

Imagine what we could fix with that?

#taxtherich

We lit up Table Mountain & Joburg with a message the G20 can't ignore: TAX THE SUPER RICH.

70% of the public want it. 70% of millionaires want it. The planet needs it.

It’s time for G20 leaders to deliver.

Youth unemployment in Ghana keeps rising — and so do social risks.

Taxing the super rich can fund skills, education, and opportunity.

President Ramaphosa, #BeOurChampion to #TaxTheSuperRich – invest in youth, not inequality.

Dear President @cyrilramaphosabsky.bsky.social, as Millionaires for Humanity, we urge you to lead at the G20.

Extreme wealth inequality is hurting Africa. A tax on the super-rich is the solution.

Please, #BeOurChampion and publicly defend the #TaxTheSuperRich agenda for people and planet.

Professor Robert Reich confirms what we already know: tax cuts for the rich don't benefit society. They explode the national debt and increase inequality.

We are the millionaires who benefited from this failed system, and we're telling you it's time for a #WealthTax.

Bruno Fierens, member of Millionaires for Humanity, said that

"the study confirms a reality that I am a witness of” and called for “more taxation of capital wealth, which should be balanced with less taxation of labour.”

A #BillionaireMeToo is a collective declaration that hoarding obscene wealth while others struggle is not normal, not acceptable, and causes huge societal damage.

We are millionaires, and we are adding our voices to say: this system is wrong. #TaxTheRich

The wealth of the top 1% reaches a record $52 trillion All wealth groups saw gains over the past year, according to recent Fed data. But the growth has been fastest for those at the very top.

www.cnbc.com/2025/10/03/t...

CNBC: The top 0.1% have nearly doubled their wealth since 2020.

An economy dependent on the portfolios of a tiny elite isn't just unfair—it's unstable.

It is time to tax extreme wealth and invest in the real economy for the benefit of all.

#GlobalWealthTax #TaxTheRich

Bruno Fierens is one of the manymillionaires speaking out because they see the inequality of the current system. We need to rebalance the scales by taxing capital, not just work. #TaxWealth #MillionairesForHumanity
