Tax Day reminder: taxing the super-rich a few percent of their wealth shouldn't be controversial - a billionaire tax wouldn't start from zero. See post below 👇 Also worth reading from @gabrielzucman.bsky.social, @josephestiglitz.bsky.social, and @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social: tinyurl.com/3r8sy73r

Two points missing in recent Wealth Tax debates: - If we measure total taxes as a % of wealth (not income), the system is highly regressive - The wealthiest pay 3%-4% of their wealth annually in taxes. Wealth Tax shouldn't be seen as starting from zero (see US data from @gabrielzucman.bsky.social)

Nice to hear ex-Kanzler Scholz mention our paper with @brankomilan.bsky.social on homoploutia on The Rest Is Politics. It looks at how top labor and capital incomes increasingly go to the same households and what that means for inequality: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
