So who is wealth being redistributed from?

• uejfiweun 5y ago
  It's always the middle class that gets screwed, dude. Happened with the income tax, happening now with inflation, and will happen again once well-intentioned but naïve people pass a wealth tax.

  The middle class.

  Its not a distribution. Its a dilution. The rich gets richer as they have most of their savings and capital in form that is not taxable and also set to rise with markets and real estate. The poor and middle class have much smaller percentage of income working for them and not usually have access to high growth opportunities.

  Whoever has the most USD cash. (In proportion to their total wealth) most certainly not the "rich".
• tomp 5y ago
  People with cash savings. Employees with salary. Owners of fixed income securities (government & corporate bonds, mortgages). Even owners of capital that sell stock (inflation causes imaginary "capital gains" and the corresponding taxes).

  It's not the middleclass. It's _everyone that isn't rich enough_.
