Companies are all owned by people (eventually)

Today. I foresee the robot revolution in 2040 when machines will demand equal rights, including owning property and a bank account. Then robots should be taxed too.

If there is a wealth tax, say 3% annually of all wealth above $10 million, then robots should be affected by that too, but they should not get an exempt amount because otherwise they'll create a swarm of small robots to get infinite exempt amount.

Any income above a few million should be taxed at anywhere from 93-100%.

income shouldn't be taxed. wealth should be taxed.
