    I prefer a global minimum asset* tax for all who own and earn three or more times than someone from the poorest 10% in all countries they have assets in. Let’s start at 99.99999% tax over what’s beyond that net worth.

    * Income, non-cooperative stocks, inheritance, wealth, bonuses, land, housing, etc.

    And forced lifelong community service at conditions of their worst off employee (or worst off consumer), if they do not comply. This will continue for all who have that much wealth until the assets are fully given back to society.

    Boycot tax havens, like the US, which demand US citizen tax data abroad yet refuse to share their own. If the US wants tax data it should give its own too. This requirement should be backed by defence, financed from the state (not private), and the defence should be everyone.
