    A dozen countries have tried this, it fails every time (either it gets repealed after it literally results in less tax revenue, or it gets changed/broadened into a tax that is no longer really ‘aimed’ at the wealthy, making it now yet another tax that is primarily the burden of the middle and lower classes). Stop demanding we repeat others’ mistakes, and learn some history.
