They have a message for the World Economic Forum. This is a meeting of politicians and millionaires. It happens every year in Davos, Switzerland. They talk about the world's problems.
Mr White was part of a small group at the conference. They went onto the streets in Davos. And they sent a letter from millionaires in different countries. They say the tax system doesn't work. They want to pay more tax.
