    One of the first paragraphs states that by 2017 only 5 countries have wealth tax. Because it’s fucking dumb and doesn’t work.

      Your words:

      You can’t tax wealth.

      You absolutely can. Whether you think it’s “fucking dumb and doesn’t work” doesn’t change the fact that you can tax wealth and you were wrong.

      I don’t expect you to admit it though. Admitting you’re wrong on the internet is the worst thing you can do apart from apologize to someone you wronged.
