Return of the Reichsfluchtsteuer

25th September 2019

Read it.

Democratic “exit tax” proposals in 2012 (Charles Schumer) and 2015 (Hillary Clinton) had me remembering the Reichsfluchtsteuer, the 25% tax that the Nazis imposed on Jews trying to flee Germany in the 1930s.

Now the 2020 Democratic presidential candidates who back a “wealth tax” — Senator Elizabeth Warren and Senator Bernie Sanders — are also both backing Reichsfluchtsteuer-style proposals. “Sanders’ wealth tax plan includes a steep “Exit Tax” similar to that proposed by ewarren,” an economic policy reporter at the Washington Post, Jeff Stein, tweeted yesterday.

    The Dems support the antisemitism of Omar and others. They have their “Brownshirts” in the form of the ironically named Antifas. They demand government control of everything. They support – more like demand – censorship of opposing views. They want to eliminate private ownership of firearms. All they’re really missing for full Nazi Party membership is a leader.
