you have no sense of math. if you forcefully took back every mansion and giant boat from the rich and sold them at auction for double their value, you wouldn’t even fund the medicare/medicaid budget for more than two years.
Yachts, for example. Or private jets. Or even huge houses. We could tax the snot out of all of these. It would probably make them only more desirable status symbols, and thus stimulate the tax.
