I'm not jealous about anybody, really don't know where that comes from. I suspect that the mansion tax will not end up being implemented, because it will end up being too crazy to administer fairly. All I know is that public money has to come from taxes, and if poor people continue to get poorer and rich people richer (for poor and rich here apply your own borderline, it doesn't matter) then the rich people will be the only ones who have the money to pay any tax. Not only that, but as inequality increases then there are going to be more poor people than rich ones and they are sooner or later going to vote for parties that tax the rich. (barring of course the American proof that turkeys really do vote for Christmas). |
