<p>This week, Democrats settled on an area of apparent commonality: the desire to eat the rich. According to Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, &#8220;Senator Wyden and the Senate Finance Committee &#8230; would impose a tax on unrealized gains on liquid assets held by extremely wealthy individuals, billionaires.&#8221; While Yellen refused to call this a &#8220;wealth tax,&#8221; House Speaker Nancy Pelosi had no such qualms: &#8220;We probably will have a wealth tax,&#8221; she said.</p>
<p>This has long been a talking point for the most Marxist-leaning Democrats, like Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who famously proposed a 2% wealth tax on all assets of a family above $50 million and 6% on all assets above $1 billion. Elated Warren supporter Adam Jentleson told The Washington Post, &#8220;Biden&#8217;s agenda was about to fall apart, but Warren had a plan for that.&#8221;</p>
