@thomasdullien Re: "Other features of the tax system more than offset the 0.3% wealth tax.". Yes, but the problem is the other countries contemplating implementing a wealth tax want to have their cake and eat it. They want to implement a wealth tax whilst not making any tweaks elsewhere. All take and no give does not make for an attractive environment, especially in this globalised world where resettlement of people and businesses elsewhere is not as difficult or time consuming as it might have once been.
