    This is an okay start, but it needs to be nationwide to be effective. It’s too easy for the ultra-wealthy to weasel out of one state without any real change in lifestyle.

    We need a national wealth tax to take back all the wealth that had been stolen from the middle class for the last 4 decades.

    Set the tax extremely high, then have the IRS offer a 10% finders fee to anyone who uncovers any scheme by which the wealthy are trying to illegally hide their wealth

    These psychopaths have watched the world starve and struggle while sitting on mountains of money so large that they are practically unfathomable.
