The only way to soak the rich is to tax net worth. Let everyone with a net worth of over $15M start paying taxes on that wealth.

Think about it. Soros would pay. Warren Buffett will at least get his wish and pay more taxes. Steven Spielberg, etc.

Most of the rich are fashionable liberals. I'd love to see them pay a tax I don't have to pay.

Oh, and 501c3s will not count to lower figuring wealth, as holders of these bogus "charities" get to pocket the interest they earn.

New populism. Don't tax income, tax the excess wealth of rich liberals.

I don’t think much of your idea. Did you bother to read the article?

Don't tax income, tax the excess wealth of rich liberals.

Rich liberals invest their money too. Sometimes they even give as much of it away as conservative rich people. How about we leave them all alone?

Nope, the wealth would just relocate to the Caymans, Australia and New Zealand, etc.

Trying to live by preying off others instead of by cooperating with them for mutual benefit, fails comprehensively every way it has ever been tried. It isn't the tactics, it is the goal and principle.

You forgot the SARCASM OFF tag at the end.
