Monday night is the Met Gala, where celebrities and celebrity politicians dress in zany costumes and party. A lot of media types are paying attention, particularly to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’ white gown with “Tax the Rich” written across the back.

I too remember the stories of Robespierre eating cake with Marie Antoinette while wearing culottes emblazoned with the slogan "Mettre fin à la monarchie!"

So tax everyone in attendance ? The funny part is that I'm sure she'll still be popular at the party

And everyone in attendance has a rich accountant who does their taxes every year and tries to minimize them.
Bet the people there “loved” that

You know they did. They love saying it. But by rich, they mean billionaires only, right Bernie Sanders?
