My dad's house that he bought in 2006 is worth over 1 million, how do you tax that
If you are in my state, it's taxed via property tax.
Yes, he pays property tax, but people are suggesting a wealth tax which would be bonkers. He would have to go back to work or seek the house
And I was suggesting that the middle class already pays a wealth tax as most of their wealth is in their home. I agree with OPs sentiment, but have it start above $5 million and have it pretty steeply progressive.
