Really? I find that surprising - it's the quintessential wealth tax. What do other folks think?

If we're looking to reform the current system, simply making the existing wealth taxes less regressive would be good - include all forms of wealth and all types of taxpayers and allow the gross to be reduced by debt (because the banks will pay the wealth tax on the value of the debt anyways).
