Basic Income Pilot Project: Study results
We need to get serious about wealth taxes. The amount of money locked up in assets and land is staggering and has been under taxed for far too long.

I agree with the sentiment, but it matters very much how it's implemented. You would need to find a way to keep the money in your country, while also taxing more. It's actually very complicated, but yes, I agree with the notion.

Said assets and land are already being used though. It's just a case of people wanting to "redistribute" them.
