That’s awesome. More nations need inheritance taxes.
Indeed. That’s how it should be
100%.
Now that’s a tax rate I could get behind.
That and when you use stock as collateral, it should count as a taxable event.
In every case, having to pay a big tax bill means you’ve made a lot of money. This should never be seen as avoidable or a hassle but something even the money-fixated should focus on and trumpet as a success.
Finally, good news (even if it is 5 years old)
You do understand that this means they received tens of billions, right?
It’s far more common in the states/west for the ultra wealthy to weasel their way out of any taxes through shells and tax havens. That these people are paying their dues is a normal thing.
You should point your salt at all the tax avoiders first.
True but it also means someone died. And now 1.3 billion of that wealth was taken away from the inheritance they received.
And it’s long overdue but we have been waiting for this situation to finally resolve. And it resolved favourably.
Stop shitting on this please
Cry me a billion dollar river.
5 year old news can still be sad I guess.
