"If Nigeria had a proper system for investigating unexplained wealth, Cubana ChiefPriest would allegedly have serious questions to answer. Hushpuppi is serving a prison sentence in the U.S., yet we still don't know the source of your wealth. Just keep quiet and enjoy whatever you're enjoying." — Isaac Fayose...

French economist Thomas Piketty explains to Zack Polanski that how a local wealth tax should Include an exit tax, adding rich should pay their fair share in proportion: "Let me make very clear that individual countries like Britain or France can very well have uh, uh, progressive wealth tax and billionaire on their own right away." "They don't need to ask the permission of their neighbors or the United Nation, or they don't need to wait for world unanimity." "The only thing they need to do when they do wealth tax on their own is to make clear that if you have made your wealth in, in Britain for many decades by benefiting from the public services in Britain, by the legal system of Britain, because creating wealth, accumulating wealth is always the outcome, uh, of a collective process where you use institution, the legal system, the education system, the health system, the transportation system, the road system." "If you have benefited from this during many decades, you cannot simply walk away at age 50 or 60 or whatever and say, okay now, bye bye, I don't pay tax anymore." "So the first, the only important thing you need to do when you set up a wealth tax, say in Britain, is to say even if you go away, you keep paying." "The way the Americans do it, is by saying as long as you keep U.S. citizenship, you pay even if you're in Switzerland, wherever you want." "I don't think this is the best way." "I think a better way would be to make people pay in proportion to the years of, of residents that they have spent in the country." "So if you have spent your first 50 years in Britain, you move at age 51, well that's fine, do that." "But you know, you keep paying 50, 51st of the tax that you would have paid." "So the fiscal cost for the treasury is quite limited." "Yes, so that's the important point." "And once you have said that, I think all the arguments about tax evasion sort of fall down almost immediately." "Now people will tell you, oh, but you cannot do that." "Of course you can." "The problem is that we have put ourselves in a situation to think that the very specific treaties about capital flows, what we have come to call free capital flows that were set up in the 80s and 90s, are sort of law of nature." "The idea that you have a sacralized right to benefit from the public services legal system in a country as much as you want, and then you push on a button and you can transfer your assets wherever you want and nobody can follow you and nobody can make you pay." "And it's a sort of new sacralized right." "But look, this is a uh, completely crazy system." "This is a machinery to make normal people middle class and lower class people hate globalization." "And if you tell people there's nothing you can change about this." "There's nothing you can change about inequality, about economic policy." "We see the only thing government can do is to control their border for, uh, migrants." "And then of course, 20 years, 30 years later, the entire political conversation is about border control and identity." "But that's because you close the discussion entirely about, uh, uh, economic and fiscal policy." "So we have to reopen the discussion." "And the first thing to do that is to question free capital flows in the sense that you don't have the freedom to escape taxation after you have benefited from the public services and public institution of a country during so long." "So if you address this directly and make clear that you will keep paying in proportion to the number of years you have stayed in Britain, then um, um, I mean, you can also combine that with rules about the location of the assets themselves." "As long as the assets are located in Britain, of course you can make people pay." "But it's important to, to have also the number of years you've spent in the country so that even if you move your assets away, you keep paying and you don't have the choice otherwise your assets can be taken away from you if some of them are in Britain, if you return to Britain and you've not paid your tax, well, you will be subject to the sanction which anybody not paying your tax." "So that's the first big thing, is that you don't need to have a world wealth tax." "You can do a lot at the level of Britain." "And we should not use this global wealth tax idea as an excuse not to do at, uh, the country level what national governments can do at their own level."

Bernie Sanders (pre-Trump/2015), explains how Illegal Immigration “makes US all Poorer.” 👇🏼 "Open borders?! That's a Koch bros. proposal. The idea, of course. I mean, that's a "Right Wing," proposal which says essentially there is no United States." It would make everybody in America POORER, you're doing away with the concept of a Nation State! And I don't think there's any Country in the world which believes in that? (Yeah, just wait)... "If you believe in a nation state or the COUNTRY called the United States, you have an obligation, in my view, to do everything we can to help poor people. What Right Wing people in this country would love is an OPEN border Policy, bringing all kinds of people work for 2 or $3 an hour!" "That would be great for them. I don't believe in that! I think we have to raise wages in this Country. I think we have to do everything we can to create the millions of jobs... You know what youth unemployment in the United States is? If you're White, a high school graduate -33%, a Hispanic - 36%, and an African American 51%!!! Do you think we should have open the borders, and bring in a lot of low wage workers, or do you think that we ought to get jobs for those kids?! So I think from a moral responsibility we should work with the rest of the Industrialized world to address the problems of International poverty, but you don’t do that by making everyone in this Country poorer.” - Bernie Sanders
