> Removing these ultra-rich people from the country will certainly decrease the wealth gap between the rich and the poor, which is probably one of the main goals of the tax I doubt this was one of the main goals. My guess would be the main goal was to get the ultra-wealthy to pull their weight and help the country out in proportion to their means. This is the purpose of tax, after all. In this, it is not just a failure, but a catastrophe.
