I wish the dems weren’t quite this scary. The Powers That Be might begin to think they don’t have to embrace the Deplorable Agenda in order to win.

The US effectively sets the rules on taxation globally since most foreigners are leftist.

I see divorces among the rich to cut tax bills in half.

Bernie didn’t think this through.

I wonder when a Democratic candidate will call for gold stars to be placed on the foreheads of deplorables...

The market for the overpriced stocks of the rich is limited and probably insufficient to support eight percent wealth taxation.

Wonder if Gray Beaver and Sanders share the same padded cell.

Bernie’s still apparently under the impression that the Democrat party isn’t owned by the heavy donors.

this wouldn’t be a tax, because the 16th Amendment grants the Feds the right to tax only income. Any actual attempt to tax “wealth” would simply be property confiscation and would be patently unconstitutional.

This smacks of being A Bill of Attainder. It starts with yhe wealthy then extends to everyone with a 401K, a bank account, and any savings.

Does anyone have the financial breakdown of Bernie’s assets?????

I can remember when Pelosi wanted to tax the “perceived’ capital gains on a person’s assets.......

Then the Obama recession severely dropped the value of most American housing......But there was no tax credit offered by Pelosi for the LOSS of capital value........

Sure would like to see more actual accountants & CPA’s advising Congress Critters.
