The government will spend the money regardless. Does the money come from

1. inflation - a regressive tax that disproportionately takes from the poor

2. taxation as a % of wealth - takes from everyone equally

The fact is the rich pay a WAY lower tax rate, we can spend the next 1000 years playing legal cat and mouse over how to tax these people but it doesn’t get us closer to option 2 unless the government gets aggressive about collecting tax.
