If you’d like to sponsor one, you can make a difference for just $34 million a day (If there isn’t a spaceship in there, you’re fine)

“On Wednesday, Senate Democrats introduced a tax proposal targeting America’s 700 richest people: billionaires. It’s tough for billionaires. If you’d like to sponsor one, you can make a difference for just $34 million a day.” —Jimmy Fallon

“You know cash is tight for billionaires when their flights in space have to lay over in Cleveland.” —Jimmy Fallon

“But by this afternoon, Democrats scrapped the tax on billionaires and now they might tax millionaires instead. When they heard that, Kim and Kylie were like, ‘Yes!’ while Khloe, Kourtney and Kendall were like, ‘No.’” —Jimmy Fallon

“Senator Ron Wyden wants to pay for the Biden agenda with something called the billionaires’ income tax. Now the details are a little complex. Let me try to explain it: Billionaires, there’s this thing called taxes, and you should pay some.” —Stephen Colbert

“The tax proposal affects only people with a billion dollars in assets or those earning more than $100 million in income three years in a row. OK, here’s a simple way to see if it affects you: Take your spare super yacht to your third house that’s on the private island shaped like your own head; look in your garage. If there isn’t a spaceship in there, you’re fine.” —Stephen Colbert

“Calling it a ‘billionaire income tax’ was smart branding by the Democrats, because Republicans are going to sound pretty out of touch if they oppose it, which they immediately did.” —Stephen Colbert
