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.
@GrantMeStrength If you freeze or seize their assets, if you pierce their shell corporations, if you hold them without charges, if you invalidate their business licenses, they can't move their wealth or use it before you tax it out of existence. Courts can stop the wealthy from subverting tax power, and all it takes is political will.
Property rights are as made up as any of the rights the rich want to deprive the poor of.
