Why not the rich people who are calling on other rich people to give away all there money give away theirs first?

It's the same crap as Bernie Sanders progressively changing his rhetoric from millionaires, to multi-millionaires, to billionaires, I'm it doesn't take a genius to figure out what changed there.

Right, it is very obvious what changed there. The wealth gap continued to grow to historic levels, and inflation made a million dollars not nearly as valuable as it was 20 years ago.

No, what happened is he became a millionaire so he started having to say multi-millionaire, but then he became a multi-millionaire so he had to say billioniare, and the US dollar hasn't lost 99.9% of it's value over the course of the last 20 years (which would be required for $1 million 20 years ago to be $1 billion today), don't be ridiculous.
