No, your argument would be like saying "if you can borrow against shares to buy a big house, mega-yacht every single year, you can do so to pay your taxes".
PG's essay shows that the wealth tax compounds every year. That just doesn't happen with consumption. Bezos doesn't have 20 homes and 20 yachts.
