I didn't pull the numbers out of thin air. There are other aspects to Swiss retirement accounts too. Besides an old age pension they have a fund that operates like a 401k that pays back to you amounts based on your contributions to it. Perhaps your friend's total payout is based on all of that. But both require you to put in the time and pay into the system. Something you aren't willing to do. You think it should be based on highly taxing the wealthy.

Ah yes, the old “It’s not our ideology voters don’t like, it’s our messengers and messaging they don’t like” argument.
Ah, the old “Everybody didn’t vote. The majority might really like leftism and communism” argument.

“The 2024 presidential election featured sky-high turnout, approaching the historic levels of the 2020 contest and contradicting long-held conventional political wisdom that Republicans struggle to win races in which many people vote.
According to Associated Press elections data, more than 153 million ballots were cast in this year’s race between Republican Donald Trump, now the president-elect, and Democrat Kamala Harris, the vice president, with hundreds of thousands of more still being tallied in slower-counting states such as California. When those ballots are fully tabulated, the number of votes will come even closer to the 158 million in the 2020 presidential contest, which was the highest turnout election since women were given the right to vote more than a century ago.
“Trump is great for voter turnout in both parties,” said Eitan Hersh, a political scientist at Tufts University.”
