America is deeply, heavily in debt

Normally when this happens the rich are forced to take a haircut

25% of the global assets of anyone worth over 250 million

If they do much as complain seize their entire global assets and imprison them and their families

That's America's money take it back

Dont even need to give the familys the 12,000.. just use it to pay down the debt

Yep, its a haircut

You profited, now we need that money back, thanks for your patriotism
