No. If you own 40.000β¬ per year, you are in the top 1% globally. So, βtaxing the rich 1%β means not only taxing billionaires, but also average incomes in western countries.
Edit: Here you can check how rich you actually are: How rich am I?
Nice Website but its only checks your income. If you have to work for your money your not rich in a western country
