Yikes. So even if I store my wealth in cash, you want it to deflate by 5% annually?
How do you handle your neighbor who discovers he has a $2m Pokémon card in his closet? Is he forced to sell it to pay the 5% if he doesn’t have the cash on hand to pay the tax?
It’s a messy proposition. I’ve yet to hear a clear proposal that doesn’t have sticky edge cases.
