We Need to Tax Billionaires

The solution to inequality that is at the vanguard of the new political debate.

The solution is the 2% “Zucman tax”: a minimum tax on the ultra-rich themselves, advocated by economist and global expert on the taxation of wealth Gabriel Zucman. We need to tax billionaires, and this game-changing book shows us why now is the moment.
