If you ask a socialist to describe their ideal world, it is one in which everyone is equally poor.

They see "taxing the rich" first and foremost as punishing an ideological enemy, with little thought given to actually maximizing the tax revenue they can collect from them over time.

If you build strawmen it's easy to knock them down.

Socialist mostly want a floor so people don't starve to death or lose their roof to medical bills. That floor would be quite easily to establish at a comfortable life for 10 billion people on this planet while still allowing for more than enough many times over millionaires.
