Literally false. Several countries even literally ruled them unconstitutional, lol.

The only countries that still have a "wealth tax" do not have a tax that's aimed at the wealthiest individuals, which is what you guys want, and what you think it'll accomplish--instead, they're broadened so much that they're just 'ordinary' taxes that are no more 'focused' on the wealthiest than any other, making the whole thing redundant/pointless.

OK, I see the weird place you're coming from. Carry on, I guess. I'll just block and move on.

Oh no, this website won't confirm my biases, better find an excuse to ignore even the most easily-verifiable facts it states, instead of even beginning to allow the possibility that I was ever wrong about anything!

Ideologues and their fragile egos just can't handle being proven wrong.
