Is there a License that requires the user to donate if they make revenue?

Actually, I‘m just excluding companies like yours because they are making way too much revenue on the basis of FOSS without giving back. We would have millions of FOSS developers if this were the case and we would solve dozens of current problems.
For example every employed sw dev with a specific skill set would then be able to go self employed immediately since they can provide insane foss code, stuff that we currently dont have and every company in the world can use it, just making sure they pay FOSS tax, so to speak.
It would completely break the locked down proprietary software model and break walled gardens wide open.
You don't know anything about my company? You don't know what proportion of FOSS vs proprietary software we use, nor how much we give back lol.
This is very pie in the sky. Your license idea only penalizes small to medium sized businesses. Alphabet's 1% would just go to Chromium/AOSP, and Meta's 1% would just go to React/Torch
