As someone who can never fathom what would be like to have a net worth of over 200k USD, i can't understand how taxing the Millionaires isnt a popular opinion.
Wouldn't that be 10 years of unspent 100k/year salary? Who can do that and be expected to not pay any wealth tax?
In a system with an incremental wealth tax billionaires COULD NOT exist, just matematically, they shouldn't be able to accumulate that wealth between taxing periods.
And if they ARE able, without avoiding taxes, that means they have captured an important supply chain somewhere, and that should raise an alarm that more distributed action over that supply chain is needed
So, personally, i agree with the slogan, it's just that the reasons are too implicit in it
