That's the thing I never understand about tax the rich, as soon as you do that they're going to leave. Well even before you do that they're going to leave. And a lot of these people do employ a lot of people so they just start companies elsewhere.

And even if you took let's say 95% of their wealth that wouldn't even pay down half of the US debt.

I think all this stuff ends up doing is being a brain drain to make people leave whatever country they're in for other countries
