A proposal to tax the accumulated wealth of California billionaires has ignited a political uproar in Silicon Valley and across the state. A large health care union is attempting to place a proposal before voters in November that would impose a one-time 5% tax on the assets of billionaires. The money would be used to backfill federal funding cuts to health services for lower-income people that were signed by President Donald Trump last year. Such proposals are popular within Democratic constituencies. But there are fears that billionaires could flee the state and take their tax dollars with them. Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom is trying to block the measure.

The story captures the difficulties of the middle class experience across America and other western democracies.
For those that care to look, many folks are teetering on the edge of profound economic shift in their lives. Others have fallen in the abyss.

“The Trump administration has continued to claim that consumers can easily afford groceries, even as Americans struggle against a weakening job market and soaring prices spurred by Donald Trump’s outrageous tariff policies.
Meanwhile, the president’s family has raked in a whopping $1.4 billion since reentering the White House one year ago, which is about 16,821 times the median U.S. household income.” 🤬

I’d love to see articles tying ‘inflation’ directly to corporate profits/quarterly shareholder earnings reports.
