billionaires should be desperate to be taxed. something is going to happen to them, and 'taxed' is the best verb they can hope for at this point

Not to mention, a billionaire is no longer a citizen of any country in any way that truly matters. They can easily go elsewhere, be safe from whatever is going on in their "home", and so on. The only country I know of that has ever actually thrown its power at its billionaires is China. So unless the billionaire currently lives and works in China, they essentially have no nationality.

    Iceland did good punishing bakers after 2008, although i wouldn't call those billionaires.
