Nevertheless, Elizabeth Warren’s Wealth Tax Persisted

Washington Post: “It’s not exactly what Warren offered on the campaign trail, but as negotiations over President Biden’s legislative agenda have led to a potential revenue shortfall, Democratic leaders are taking another look at a wealth tax. They are weighing a levy targeted at the country’s billionaires — a concept similar to the one popularized by candidate Warren.”

“Her allies are relishing the moment and finding some degree of irony in the notion that the idea resembling the centerpiece of her platform might help seal the legislative legacy of her onetime rival Joe Biden.”
