@c4news: California voters have rejected a proposed one-off wealth tax on billionaires. Known as Proposition 40, the measure would have imposed a 5% tax on the net worth of around 200 billionaires, raising an estimated $100 billion. Supporters said 90% of the revenue would fund healthcare and help offset federal funding cuts from Donald Trump’s spending bill. But the proposal divided Democrats, with critics warning it could drive wealthy residents out of the state and reduce tax revenues. #California #USA #Trump #Channel4News #C4News

I don’t get this bill dosent even make sense, how are billionaires meant to give 5% of their net worth when it tied up in stock and businesses as soon as they sell the stock the price would drop and then their net worth is now less, and also if it’s tied in assets that heavily depreciate like machinery and nvidia chips and what if it’s tied in charities and foundations ectr, most billionaires aren’t holding billions in cash and a lot of their net worth is debt borrowed againts their stock or businesses ectr.

the 'even Sweden abolished wealth taxes' sign is the detail I keep coming back to. a one-off tax losing that badly says something about how the pitch landed

this is because people DONT UNDERSTAND how much money these people actually have and cannot conceive that IT IS NOT A FINITE RESOURCE. 🙄 Taxing these people only means they have marginally less money for a week or so.. then its back in their accounts again 😐 HOW ARE YOU NOT GETTING THIS.
