It gets worse. Most rich people don’t have piles of cash stashed away like Scrooge McDuck. Their wealth is in assets. Tax those and they will have to liquidate, and who is going to buy them? The other rich will be doing the same thing so they can’t buy them. That leaves foreigners (Saudis and Chicoms) and the government. Plus no market will reduce the value of those assets.

Progressive Democrats, however are lying, thieving, greedy, communist bastards and think all wealth belongs to Government Almighty, to be given to Progressive Democrats.

This place is home to many pink socialists who pretend to be “conservatives”.

When you tax something, you get less of it.
