I am not to sure she doesn’t make a point. We need to confiscate enough of the rich in America’s wealth to pay of the debt! Allow so much for each person in the family and take the rest from those who are multi millionaires.

The rich as a group do not have enough money for any kind of wealth tax to pay off the Debt. All the wealth there might last a few months or a year then it’s spent. You would not make a dent in the national debt.

Trump proposed a 10% wealth tax years ago when that would have easily paid off the National Debt and put the country on a firm financial footing, if done then with a dedicated revenue stream to keep debt paid down in the future we would be in great shape. I am afraid it’s too late for that now.

Who's going to decide what the "so much for each person in the family" is?

I hope you simply forgot the /s.
