Wealth Tax in the US?
So I've been thinking a lot about wealth taxes lately. First: what is a wealth tax? Quote:
I think it's highly unlikely that something like this could happen in the US. But let's play pretend for a bit-- regardless of the fact that it would be incredibly difficult for something like this to actually happen, do you guys think that a wealth tax could help the United States? Or would it cause more problems than it solved? |

how does it work?
Annual/lifetime? Does it replace income tax or does the same income get tax twice? I am all for higher tax rates for higher income brackets and getting rid of tax loop holes but taxing the same money twice makes me uncomfortable.
