Tesla boss rages on Twitter: Elon Musk fears wealth tax – he has a much better plan with his money
–
The Democrats in the United States are calling for higher taxation, which should primarily hit the richest men in the country. Elon Musk reacts promptly on Twitter and shares his own plan with his money.
–
According to a proposal by the Democrats, billionaires in the USA should dig deeper into their pockets in the future. So far, men like Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos have paid rather low taxes given their wealth.
The new demand for a taxation of unrealized investment income wants to break with this practice, as “Business Insider“reported.
Billionaires are also said to pay taxes on wealth
According to this, billionaires should also pay taxes on their assets in the future and not only, as before, on realized investment income such as profits from the sale of shares.
According to Nancy Pelosi, spokeswoman for the United States House of Representatives, this could bring $ 200 billion to $ 250 billion into the coffers of the state, according to the news channel “CNBC“reported.
Critics, on the other hand, consider these plans to be unrealistic and assume that the super-rich would then steer their wealth even more into opaque structures.
