I think Donald has an excellent idea, the wealthy have been riding on the backs of the middle class for too long. Need proof wait until the CEO salaries are published,then you will see how they have been riding on the backs of their employees with their outrageous salaries.
its a great idea, but it isnt new or anything, no president has had the balls to actually push such a tax forward. its pretty clear that the most wealthy in the US dont need the entirety of their wealth in their lifetime, yet the disparity between them and the middle class grows every day for no greater cause. even if this tax doesnt repay the majority of the debt, its certainly a great start for many reasons.

It isn´t about $18 Trillion, but 5.7. I guess that´s the part of it that´s held by parties outside of the United States. It´s a 14.25% levy on individuals and trusts worth net $10 million or more. Seems reasonable.

You don't think that taking $18T out of the money supply to retire 0% interest debt would have negative ramificatiins on the US and global economies? Because I do.
Trump doesn't understand the difference between personal/corporate/municipal debt vs. sovereign debt. He is unfit for office, which is too bad because I like him.

Can America tax its way back to greatness? Donald Trump seems to think so.
