That's still off.
I take these things a bit personally, because for many years, I sort of owned my job, and the valuations of my home and my job added up to more than 100% of my wealth. Fair enough, having a well-paying job is valuable.
But with the way we usually compute wealth, most wealth is ultimately connected to an organisation skilled people doing well-paying jobs, and the person who has a well-paying job is seldom the person whose wealth is proposed to be taxed. Taking that into considerations makes the proposals look rather… wrong.
