Warren's #WealthTax plan calls for 2% over $500M, 1% more for over $1 billion. No one at that level of wealth would see any difference whatsoever in their lifestyle, but millions of people would see a fundamental difference in their lives based on what we could do with the money.

Correction: her plan is for 2% over $50M, not $500M.

This is good but I'm pretty sure Bernie's wealth tax plan was more aggresive and that's honestly what we need right now

the problem is not the money. this is not about money per se... the problem for the elites is that it would empower poor people and reinvigorate the idea of Democracy, which will of course undermine elite rule.

And, yet, it's still insufficient.

What do you mean what we can do with that money? WE CREATE DOLLARS. We do not need their money. That is not the purpose of a federal tax.
