Come to Germany. We had a wealth tax until 1996 and whenever it's revival is publicly discussed you can see that the majority is against it even when the majority of our people would never have to pay it and would profit from it. It's mind boggling that the people are still willing to defend our current "don't tax the rich" policy...

Yeah the whole AfD situation is extremely worrying to me.

It's not even the AfD. Most of the politic parties don't or at least didn't want to touch wealth tax.

Rather than "it's not even the AfD" it should say "It's not only the AfD".

That's because most of the parties here suck.
