On this episode of Daily Nuggetz, we dive deep into one of society's most pressing questions: why are Western governments so reluctant to tax their wealthiest citizens? We explore the fears of capital flight and administrative hurdles, then unpack the ambitious idea of a global wealth tax, like the proposed 2% minimum for billionaires. Would such a tax truly make a dent in their fortunes, or would the ultra-rich continue to enjoy their lavish lifestyles, from luxury homes to superyachts, without even noticing? Join us as we uncover the complex implications, potential revenues, and the surprising realities of taxing the world's most affluent.
