 "If we tax the rich they will just leave."

So?
Let them leave.
Pretty much anywhere they go they...

"If we tax the rich they will just leave."

The person making such an argument is just proving that no billionaire has any loyalty or allegiance WHATSOEVER to the nation(s) of which they can delcare citizenship.
