My country (Norway) saw a lot of rich people moving to Switzerland because of more advantageous tax rules, so we actually did implement an “exit tax”!

To the surprise of no one, the rich people will not stop whining about it.

germany has a rule like that also, but people pretend like it doesn't exist and rich people would leave if we tax them

We’ve, as most of the world, been drifting right for a few decades unfortunately. The tax I mentioned was one of the main issues in last year’s election even though it affects nearly no one. That’s a sign of a small group gaining control of public discourse, which is not great…
