    The tax would cost him like 12 billion (I think) so he would see this as money well spent if it should work. No telling with Newsom, he seems like he wants to be the Billionaires Choice TM for 2028

    Imagine the good that could have been done if that 100 million had gone to something useful instead of going to lawyers and lobbying.
