If you tax the wealthy they’ll leave.

We tax them. They leave.

Every country taxes them. They leave.

Now they live in international waters on giant boats. They hate it. The food is awful. They get norovirus a lot.

The world carries on, considerably better off.

They will threaten to leave but they enjoy clean water, modern medicine, literate minions enough to have a tax increase that doesn't affect their relative wealth be an issue.

@quoidian

That's why they leave for Switzerland, not Cayman Islands.
