It also wrecks the economy and destroys prosperity, and everybody suffers (except rich, powerful, self-serving politicians, of course).

The other problem that no one seems to be addressing is that it makes the accumulation of wealth much more difficult if not in many cases impossible. So where is the incentive to produce and to innovate? Answer: there isn't one.
If you can't enjoy the fruits of your labors, why labor? Of course this is the goal of leftists like the despicable Fauxcahantas. They want the flow of all wealth controlled by the government with politicians like her picking the winners and losers for arbitrary and capricious reasons. Filth like Warren and her fellow Democrats have not the intelligence or the right to direct the economy. Their stupidity has been tried many times before (Venezuela being the latest example) and it has ALWAYS failed to deliver what it promised.
Democrat voters are obviously made of dark matter.

The writers math is off a bit based on how they explain this.
If CA pays 12% due to having that % of the population then WVA paying 10 times that rate means 120% of the population lives in WVA.

It’s not a gd tax! It’s confiscation! The property “tax” is not a tax. It’s progressive confiscation, 3% per year. The wealth “tax” would be the same. Stop calling it a tax!

I was wondering when someone was going to get around to mentioning that that slight little hang up on the wealth tax

Constitutional is whatever John Roberts says it is after getting out of bed and reading his reviews in the New York Times.

Who worries about little things like Constitutionality these days?

As Ayn Rand wrote/said back in the 70’s when this was being floated, “By What Right?!!!” Where in the Constitution is there permission to take the wealth from citizens?
But these bast*ards never give up.

They start with a confiscation disguised as a tax.
Then they move on to an open confiscation, "For the people."
Then they just shoot the bastards without caring about labels.
What is giving away the game is that too many younger Leftists are itching to get straight on to step 3.
