I'm reading his book right now. This may be explained. If more people were
making money, and every dollar spent into the economy undergoes a
multiplier effect to become $15. Huge corporations that pay no taxes need
to contribute their fair share given that their activities are putting
millions of people out of work. It is both levelling the playing field and
accelerating the economy to a higher level. I look for him to explain it
better in the next debate.
Best,
Frances
