I agree with the dead post below. "Modeling a wealth tax correctly is to not tax anyone. I reject your morality and economics." The amount of waste by those empowered but unaccountable, to distribute taxes to programs of their choosing, is flabbergasting. I believe in taxes, but the abuse is unacceptable.

The amount of waste by those empowered but unaccountable, to distribute wealth to purposes of their choosing, is also flabbergasting. The assumption that tyranny and waste are limited to government is erroneous. The reality is that unregulated capitalism leads to tyranny just as surely as overregulated capitalism. And at this point in history, we are erring deeply on the side of underregulation.
