Tax unrealized gains. That should scare you right there. But you'll never wake up.

Wharfie, Like I said, 99% tax over $1B. Exactly my point. No one would ever save even a penny over that one billion limit. The would-be billionaires would either donate it, or spend it profligately, or hide it in wealth shelters that cannot be reached by whatever authorities are imposing said 99% tax. And what is that tax used for? Paying for mUh rOaDs or mUh pOlIcE aNd fIrEfIgHtErS? Nope. Like I told you, "forced charity," which later becomes a prohibition on billionaires. At first you denied that the goal was said prohibition, but now you're justifying it. Just like Ayn Rand called out. "The issue is whether you do or do not have the right to exist without giving him that dime." Tenchusatsu
