Aside from a small group of highly pissed-off formerly uber-wealthy, what do you suppose could go wrong? Within ten years the United States would be a social and political Utopia.I say we do it! But if it does not work out (ie in a year shit falls apart) all the people involved with this idea agree to kill themselves on TV so that the world can learn from their stupidity!
The Nation has the money to do that. The problem is the bulk of our wealth resources has been hijacked by a bunch of greedy individuals who have methodically exploited an economic system which was extremely vulnerable to manipulation via political corruption.
If you are aware of pitfalls which I am blind to I will appreciate your input.
Oh I dono, prolly the fact that you would never see a dime of their money... They would sooner pull out all investments and ship any money over 20 million overseas. Then you get to deal with the economy tanking due to the ripple effect you're horrible idea would cause.
Next, as said before you would be claiming we should go after people making 10 million + to make up for all the problems you caused. Before long no one would know if their earning are safe and you would be in something much worse than a great depression. Hell, if Obama’s stimulus can fail because of “bad attitudes” then just think how bad things could be under your dictatorship.
