About this episode
Aaron and Damien discuss the implications of a millionaire tax on the ultra-wealthy and its potential impact on wealth inequality.
The implementation of a “millionaire tax” on the ultra-wealthy in states around the country could have a powerful impact on our economy and on people’s lives. Listen as Aaron and Damien discuss the piece “More Than A Slogan: Labor’s New Gambit to Tax the Rich” by Rebecca Burns in In These Times, which highlights and analyzes recent efforts to organize around and implement new taxes on corporations and the ultra-wealthy in states across the country and the potential impact of these taxes on addressing extreme wealth inequality and on people’s lives, and what we learn and take away from this incredible piece in our continued learning and unlearning work and fight for collective liberation.
