Mindmeld, did you see Elizabeth Warren's new wealth tax proposal?

All assets above $50M will now be taxed at 2%. Jeff Bezos will be paying $2.8B in taxes per year. (Well, at least he and his wife, collectively.)

Even if this tax never gets passed in the foreseeable future, the idea is already taking root in the minds of Americans. Instead of using taxes as a means of funding government, taxes will now be used as a literal CASH GRAB.
