> I firmatari della lettera aperta sottolineano che dodici paesi europei hanno introdotto un’imposta sul patrimonio, nove dei quali l’hanno abolita. “Il Belgio non ha bisogno di più tasse, ma ha bisogno di più imprenditori che creino posti di lavoro, perché poi il resto verrà da sé”, concludono. Forse un segno che una tassa del genere non dà quello che mi aspetto?

Typisch voor ondernemers om dit te zeggen. “Wealth will always trickle down” zeggen deze mensen altijd. Awel, ja? Wanneer dat dan? Ik heb het nog niet zien gebeuren.
>“As representatives of entrepreneurs and family businesses, we are deeply concerned about the ease with which wealth taxes are presented today as a solution to all our challenges”
Just the first sentence is a straw man fallacy: Nobody said that wealth tax is a solution to all challenges. Please, rich guys, try to defend your rich position without manipulation.
Mensen met geld willen niet belast worden… hmm, well sucks to suck, pay up
You need to do it in a smart way or the super rich will just create shell companies in Luxembourg to hide their wealth (pref. European level). A capital gains tax / tax on rental income it a lot easier to accomplish. But keep in mind that the county should stay attractive for investments. We need to encourage Belgians to invest in the country. Too much capital is rotting away on our spaarboekskes (savings accounts). If we would introduce a capital gains tax, capital losses should also be a tax deduction (imho).

“Nee maar we moeten meer taxeren, ondernemen is te gratis hier!!!”
