A ‘WEALTH Tax’ is a very different beast from an ‘INCOME Tax’ and would almost certainly need, as did the Income Tax, a Constitutional Amendment barring the Dems packing the Supreme Court.
Even a packed SCOTUS cannot work around this one: A WEALTH tax, like the INCOME tax, is a DIRECT tax against the people of the individual states.
The US Constitution expressly FORBIDS the US Government from levying a DIRECT tax. That is why the 16th Amendment had to be passed.
The 16th Amendment explicitly mentions an Income Tax … not a Property Tax.
You nailed it. Sadly, liberals don’t know the difference between income and wealth.
