An economist's account of the gains the rich made in the 1980s, this book shows the increase in the inequality of wealth using examples and facts and figures. In the second part of the book, the author demonstrates that the majority of advanced industrial countries tax household wealth holdings, while the USA does not. Examining the various taxes in Europe, Wolff proposes a Swiss-style, direct wealth tax for the USA that would raise about $40 billion per year.
