Wealth Ceiling - Coggle Diagram
Wealth Ceiling
Wealthy class
celebrities
"I've made a lot of money in the last lucky 45 years. I know how fortunate I am for all my choices and chances. However, I want to fund an array of new projects, a few even being charities. I can't do a lot of my ideas if my almost endless budget becomes actually endless."
billionaires
"I've come from nothing, now I've made something. Maybe how I've gotten such a high net worth could be considered 'hoarding money' but I've done so many amazing things with the money I do share! I think the ethical balances out the unethical. Let me keep my money."
generational wealth
"My family has lived comfortably for decades, it's not fair to suddenly cut our wealth! My great grandfather did not work that hard and made his own soap business just for the government to take a cut!
businesses
lotteries
"I'm sure the wealth ceiling could hurt our business but not as much as a person might think. The only things we would have to do is make sure our winners never win the jackpot again, as well as maybe lower our prizes. It might make a small amount of our buyers unmotivated but I'm sure the majority would have no problem with this."
employers
"I work at a pretty upscale wealthy company, I'm a regional manager so it's my job to give out bonuses to the people in my branch. I think this is an amazing idea because it helps corporate decide who gets how much so much easier. Our budget makes it difficult with these kind of things most of the time."
casinos
"This is a horrible idea, people come here to be millionaires and more, which by the way is extremely risky to do in this kind of place. If this wealth ceiling is added we'll have to cut customers off like it's a bar. Then our dedicated gamblers will stop coming, sure it's good for them they might stop gambling completely but why is it good for us?"
middle class
"I wish I had problems like those rich people, I have to worry about feeding my three kids and getting to work on time and awake, and I'm still considered lucky in life. It's just sad so many of us are down here and a select few are all the way up there.
lower middle class
"This honestly can't and won't affect me whatsoever, these rich people don't pay taxes and definitely didn't work hard to get where they got. I work hard 7 days a week and I have less than 1% of what they have. I get my power and water cut constantly so they can deal with having a little bit of their precious money cut."
government
prime minister
"I said I was for the middle class when I was elected so I have to be. I feel bad doing this to all my rich friends and peers who like to donate pretty large amounts at events. I also don't want to follow this rule myself but I have to our I'll fit the stereotype of a promise breaking politician."
tax payers
"it'll be nice to bring the Uber wealthy down. Now this still doesn't mean they're not getting out of taxes anymore, but this is a step in the right direction. I hope to take another step with taxes next."
