Just thinking out loud. It's not easy but it's possible. Heck, perhaps blockchain technology can be used to accurately track, trace, record transactions and machines can do all of the wealth calculation. Potential wealth (holding that hasn't been realized) can also have potential tax - those are on the book but not realized and can be tapped as a source by the government. As private entities can use that wealth as collateral, the gov can also do things with that potential tax - it will need to be adjusted real-time, but with technology such as blockchain, it's doable. I don't know about amendment but it doesn't necessarily have to be run at the federal-only level. States can collect property tax and pass a % of that to the federal government. States today can charge sales tax across state boundaries. Intangible/virtual property that exists online can be taxed across state boundaries to ensure fair taxation. Physical properties that serve people across other states can also be taxed across state boundaries for the same reason. Perhaps it's a per revenue / usage to each state tax. Sales tax are regressive. But the simplicity of it is a huge advantage and I think it's fine as long as we have a good robust support system for everyone.
/ Seriously? France vs US crime. Its not close https://www.nationmaster.com/country-info/compare/France/United-States/Crime I'm sure Finland is even better
And then you post something inquisitive. It's amazing. Other countries sure do. It's still somewhat better to live in the United than even Singapore where there's extreme rigging and f'd government on the covert.
America's fat ass population, ghettos and ghetto problems, puts extra burden on our government. Their schools are better because their parents are engaged in education
There are pockets of former USSR cities with undisclosed murder rates but many journalists have written about the murder and crime living abroad. So I'm guessing it makes Chicago look much better in comparison.
Here is a chart from 2021 showing that France and the Ukraine have a higher crime rate than the USA https://www.numbeo.com/crime/rankings_by_country.jsp
What are people murdering each other in Russia about? Ill wait till actual numbers come out. Russia is an educated country
No idea why Russians are murdering Russians, but this chart shows their murder rate is more than the USA. (I was surprised) https://www.nationmaster.com/country-info/compare/Russia/United-States/Crime/Violent-crime
McConnell blasts ProPublica tax leak, says whoever is responsible should be 'hunted down and thrown into jail' During an interview on conservative host Hugh Hewitt's radio show, McConnell rebuked the disclosure of the tax records of some of the most affluent Americans in the country and called for consequences for the perpetrators. "My guess is the IRS, somebody at the IRS leaked this in order to affect the tax debate and remind people that there are some very wealthy Americans," he said. "There are some very wealthy Americans. But it's important to remember we don't tax wealth." McConnell added: "Our tax returns are, by law, confidential because of just this kind of shenanigans. These people ought to, whoever did this, ought to be hunted down and thrown into jail." https://www.businessinsider.com/mcconnell-propublica-tax-leak-billionaires-republican-outrage-2021-6 Let's start with the tax evaders first Mitch...
Not sure how well you know Russia. While there are a small group of very well educated people, but Russia is BRUTAL.
russians personalities are pretty brutal...i dont like to generalize, but in general they are most unfriendly and outright dickish people ive ever met.
