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.

That is appalling low, and any politician suggesting we should be raising taxes on the rich by only 1-2% should be headed straight to jail as an accomplice. These people need a >95% tax rate and it needs to be now
