The Democrats’ so-called ‘billionaire tax’ proposal introduced by Senator Wyden on Wednesday is in total chaos.
A quick recap of what this horrifying tax policy does:
-applies to taxpayers making as little as $25 million, not “billionaires”
-retroactive tax hike on assets held for decades and never sold
-49% double death tax
-backdoor repeal of Opportunity Zones, 1031 exchanges, and gift tax exclusion
To sum up:
-applies to taxpayers making as little as $25 million, not “billionaires”
-retroactive tax hike on assets held for decades and never sold
-49% double death tax
-backdoor repeal of Opportunity Zones, 1031 exchanges, and gift tax exclusionhttps://t.co/tQgPHKOJnL

The chaos began when Democrat Senator Joe Manchin (WV) refused to jump on board and support the tax plan.
Because of @Sen_JoeManchin opposition, the Dem leadership and White House sources tell us that the billionaire tax is all but dead.
