Biden to propose ‘Billionaire Minimum Income Tax’ of 20 percent
(Worthy News) – The Biden administration plans to announce a “Billionaire Minimum Income Tax” on Monday as part of its 2023 budget proposal, The Washington Post reports, citing five people with knowledge of the matter and an administration document obtained by the newspaper.
Fox News appears to have obtained the same document, and reports that the new tax would apply to all U.S. households with a net worth of more than $100 million.
