      What semantics game? I asked for a source supporting the claim regarding wealth taxes. You have not provided one and a different account, not you, demonstrated they don’t know the difference between wealth and income taxes. They were confused whereas you haven’t backed your claim.

      So do you have a source?

          Wikipedia is not a great source for things like this. In fact it does not support the notion that there is no capital flight.

          Given your comments here Im not sure you are in a position to determine how educated people are on taxation.

              Your first source states that it does not impact entrepreneurship which is not a point I addressed but does not support or refute your claim.

              Your second source are non-experts as lawyers are not economists and this is a question of economics not law.

              So again what is going on is that you do not have the level of understanding you think you do. Rather than recognizing that lack of understanding and taking a chance to learn you have decided to double down on the idea that you are correct when you have made it abundantly clear that you have no education in macroeconomics.

                  My solution is higher marginal tax rates and estate taxes because those do work.

                  Your confidence is misplaced because you clearly demonstrate that you have no idea what you are talking about. You can change that if you want to appear like you have a valid opinion.
