I maintain that it wouldn't affect me. As for what would be reinvested, you say "a good portion," I say an amount so low that its impact will be immeasurably low.
You talked about extent in that you're suggesting the improvement in quality would be worth caring about; this is just you being pedantic. Allow me to be pedantic as well: I never retorted "well, it doesn't" because, unlike you, I've made it very clear that I'm giving my opinion rather than speaking in absolutes.
I can admit that billionaires are getting more than their fair share, never having expressed otherwise here, which is also why I believe the money would largely be going from one well-padded pocket to another.
We've both expressed our views so I won't be continuing this conversation.
