To the editor: Oh no! How will we ever get well from the lack of cryptocurrency startup (examine notes) BitGo shifting to (examine notes) South Dakota (“California crypto startup strikes to South Dakota as debate over proposed wealth tax heats up,” Jan. 21)?
I’m starting to heat as much as the proposed poll measure to levy a one-time tax on California’s billionaires. It looks as if an incredible car to rid the state of grasping, egocentric and pampered residents.

To the editor: The proposed tax on billionaires ought to be 3%, not 5%. Usually talking, billionaires would little doubt pay no taxes if they might and, with quite a few loopholes already, they pay a low relative price.
However at a tiny 3% for simply 200 billionaires, even a billionaire on the decrease finish of the dimensions may really feel that could be a truthful extra tax for all their “arduous work.” It might assist the opposite overwhelming majority of taxpayers with decrease taxes. Would any billionaire with a way of disgrace argue in opposition to that?
