Summary
Michael Bloomberg has committed to spending between $500 million and $1 Billion to run for president. If you're wondering why he wouldn't spend this on progressive causes, realize that this is 100% about stopping Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders from instituting their various wealth taxes.

This is terribly disturbing and dangerous. Let's discuss why.
