Taxing the rich means that there are fewer people with absurd money, which means businesses won't have many customers at such high prices. It's like McDonalds charging $5 for a quarter of a potato. They're hoping that the lost sales from the poors at such a high price is made up by fewer high priced purchases by the rich.

If even the rich couldn't or didnt want to afford $5 quarter potatoes then they'd have to lower the price

Do you think that billionaires are buying a meaningful number of large fries from McDonald's? That's... well... good luck with that.
