@cshentrup i'm not interest in taxing corps. that just encourages bad capstructure, until we also eliminate the tax deductibility of interest. i'm interest in taxing the very wealthy, and am entirely unconcerned that in cohorts among whom money represents score-keeping and zero-sum insurance, changing the baseline of competition by taxing them all equivalent will impair production. concentrated wealth imposes huge costs. taxing the very wealthy is a fiscal positive plus a social gain. win win!

@cshentrup (i do have some interest in taxing corp profits, if we can eliminate the deductibility of interest, because doing so encourages reinvesting in whatever creates an asset that firms can expense, including for example adopting a high-investment rather than high-turnover model of labor relations. but a guy who calls himself "neoliberal" is unlikely to be too enthusiastic about that argument.)

@cshentrup (and i'm interested in excess margins taxes, as a means of combatting market power. we want forms to maximize PQ by maximizing Q rather than P. again, i doubt i'm gonna persuade a guy whose moniker is "neoliberal", but this is directly a tax intended to support production rather than rents by reducing the relative value of exploiting pricing power vs expanding production.)
