We need an EU wide 100% wealth tay for any wealth over say 15million€. I am willing to negotiate about the second number.

So anyone who gets a certain amount of money might as well close all the companies they own?

Or give them to the employees or something. Probably 15M is a too low threshold to enforce that but it would work. It would basically distribute the wealth amongst the people who produce it

Maybe not 15 million, but let's say at 100 million you get a dog park named after you with a statue that says you won at capitalism
