Remember how good the economy was in the 50’s and 60’s? Wanna guess what the tax rate on the wealthy was? It was 91%. This was the “golden age of American capitalism”, and that tax revenue kicked off a slew of public works projects that boosted the economy.
What semantics game? I asked for a source supporting the claim regarding wealth taxes. You have not provided one and a different account, not you, demonstrated they don’t know the difference between wealth and income taxes. They were confused whereas you haven’t backed your claim.
I swear corporations hire these people to come in here and defend billionaires. Billionaire who will never even spend any of that in a hundred life times.

Alternatively some of us have taken economics classes and history classes and know how poorly wealth taxes have worked.

Please provide a source that substantiates the idea that wealth taxes have ever worked.

I asked fir a source that demonstrates that wealth taxes work not that higher tiers of income tax work which is what you are talking about.
Considering that you do not know the difference between these things you should be less certain as to how any of this works.

So do you have a source?

That’s not a source nor does it establish what you claim.
