As if it weren’t bad enough that the idiots who run the PRC already punish high income people with extra income taxes, they are trying to add even more. This article from the WSJ describes the new Marxist group, Courage Campaign, that is pushing for such higher income taxes that they will in essence kill their golden geese when more of the evil rich reach their breaking point and relocate to lower tax states.
Here is the Marxist video that the article discusses:
More discussion from Fox Business about this push in the PRC to confiscate more from the evil rich.
Here’s a funny Chinese animation of the attempt to soak the evil rich in the PRC:
From Jay Leno, via NewsMax:
A group calling itself the Courage Campaign is trying to win support for a millionaire tax by running an ad showing Kim Kardashian. They want the Kardashians to pay more. This is part of the plan to raise taxes on the dumbest 1 percent.

California taxes away jobs while Texas adds them – And the morons in Sacramento are showing no sign of slowing down their tax and spend policies – just like the idiots in DC.

Business owner said he was ‘taxed out’ of California lands to Corpus Christi – It’s always good to see stories of people who don’t just bend over and let the DemonRats fiscally rape them. Even worse than the ever growing tax burden in the PRC are the ever expanding regulations of literally every aspect of our lives.

A State Income Tax for Washington State? – The spendaholics in that state have gone too far, so a tax on the “evil rich” may be on the horizon. Their $200,000 definition of who is evil rich will obviously drop down over time, as have all such soak the rich plans.

If Washington’s most famous billionaires are really worried about their state’s finances, they’d write personal checks to the government and leave everyone else alone.

and a link to their special tax amnesty site.
So, it’s for real. As some others have mentioned, it shouldn’t be too long before we see similar ads from other states, as well as our friends at the IRS.
Update – PJTV recently posted this counter-attack video for the Pennsylvania State Rulers.
