We need taxes for all - also the super-rich.
“Tax the rich” is an official EU petition. The EU Parliament has to deal with it when successful.
7 EU countries must reach the quorum. And in total 1M Votes are needed. Check yours in the chart and share, cross post etc.!
The petition calls for the introduction of a wealth tax on very large fortunes. Sign the petition here
Point 2 is always what people fear monger when taxes being raised is brought up.

That news is 10 years old.
In the meantime, Macron removed the wealth tax.
Did Depardieu come back to France? There are other places to avoid wealth tax in Europe. Depardieu first moved to Belgium, why go all the way to Russia? Seems to be more than just tax reasons. He is also now a citizen of a United Arab Emirates.

So…Elon musk instead of paying $0 income tax as an American citizen would pay $0 as an expat?

That is the thing that need to change, but how do you legislate that without fucking up the little guy with 100k in 401k. Or the random dude making HELOC that’s going to be taxed harshly?

LMAO, you think they pay inheritance?
Also, what a solution: let them extract wealth and not pay for 80-100 years. Then we can finally do something. Do you even realise how ridiculous that sounds?

You dream they do.
Ah, the troll has revealed itself. What’s next, you’re going to tell me the fantasies of trickle down economy working? You’re going to tell me how buying a yachts, cars, jewels, and hookers is an investment? Let me guess “it’s in an investment in themselves to generate more money”? “Emptied balls clear the mind for future business decisions”?
