Her proposed tax could garner as much as $2.75 trillion over a 10-year period from taxing roughly 75,000 families, Saez said. That equates to less than 0.1 percent of American households, he noted.

Emmanuel Saez, a left-leaning economist advising Warren, said her plan is to impose a 2 percent tax on Americans with more than $50 million in assets and a 3 percent tax on those with more than $1 billion in assets.
Why only 2%? Why not 50%? If the standard is that they can afford it and need their fair share taxed why not half?

I guess I'll have to park my assets offshore.

Notwithstanding equal protection issues, I am pretty sure the 16th amendment does not include a tax on wealth, but only income.
Since no such tax was in the original Constitution either, any such tax would be unconstitutional.

This is an excellent point.

Democrat's primary function of government is wealth redistribution like I said the other day

Can't these people just pick up and leave to avoid this tax?
