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.

When an owner of a professional sports team pays a penalty for going over the salary cap, where does the money go? Just thinking that this concept can work when they become worth a half billion, and then the % goes up as their worth goes up. Give to wrkrs who work.

Why we not doing what FDR did? 1%, 2% ... what a joke.

Should be a lot higher than that

The difference they’d see would be that the populace and general environment in which they live are healthier, happier, and more productive.

Pretty sure the tax was on fortunes over $50M, Marianne! Love you! ♥️ #MATH
