Pretty interesting how he's fully accepted that there will be "a wealth tax" as a result of a backlash against AI

I wish I were as confident as he is...

He's not. It's a thinly veiled attempt to pump crypto.

If wealth is in crypto maybe they think it can't be found to be taxed

If I wanted to hide something from the authorities, I wouldn’t do it using a system whose defining feature is that all transaction data is visible to anyone.

It's also a thinly veiled attempt to land at tax other than 100%, and overseen by courts that we suspect he has influence over.

I like the confidence. I imagine things could still go that well for him. Everyone should get a chance to dream of nice things.

For someone who has taken so much from the rest of us, a mere tax could be a pretty nice outcome.
