But it's easy to tax personal wealth. It's new and different to tax wealth instead of income but it's not totally unreasonable IMO.
EDIT: also, the highest income tax rate in the US has dropped significantly since the 1950s. Maybe that was what made America great then?

- wyldfire 2y agoIs it? What if you hold shares in US traded equities? Can you still be a major shareholder if you somehow transfer that to an entity in another country? And maybe a mutual taxation reciprocity agreement with other like minded countries could defeat those games?
