But your still didn't explain where the money comes from.
We also call billionaires billionaires because they have a "net worth" of a billion, but having a billion dollars. Example is elon, is he went to the open market and said he is selling all his stock, he would probably get 100 billion. So good net worth would go from 700 billion to 100 billion because he went from a stock evaluation of 350 p/e to 30-35p/e. So that 600 billion disappeared because it isn't real.
So we tax wealth that isn't real, where did the money come from. It didn't come from thin air, it comes from somewhere.
