These profits already taxable. To address this problem that’s why the US came up with the double taxation but now they also entering non double taxation agreements lol. See BEPS action 2 and 6

It is immoral that the Secretary-annual General’s salary is $227, 253 + benefits and no taxes. His net worth is estimated to be between $5 million and $10 million...

He is very right but…
there should be a higher Taxation on speculation on the commodity and the commodity futures.
But companies should be incentivized to produce
Production is good 👍🏻
Market speculation is bad👎🏻
