Nah, tax them at the same rate as the poor. Hard limit. “Everyone pays n% of all income, assets, and investments.” When the rich complain about paying 30-35% of everything they have every year, maybe it gets lowered a bit. Maybe they’re fine with 20%?
That's like eliminating private property with extra steps.
I mean, I'm basically okay with that, but none of this "a third of your wealth per year" nonsense.
Oh, no, I agree — so stop taking a third of what working folks make.
That's the whole point. If the amount is too much for the rich, it's way too much for the working class. I'm just saying, make it equal. Or equitable, whichever is the word I'm going for here. (One would mean everyone pays a flat amount regardless of how much they make. I don't mean that one. The other means everyone pays the same rate. That's the one I mean.)
