Campaña californiana contra impuesto a la riqueza muestra brecha de 351 millones de dólares

El Los Angeles Times informó que los opositores a la Proposición 40 recaudaron más de 316 millones de dólares y los partidarios alrededor de 34 millones, lo que dejó una brecha de gasto de 351 millones de dólares en la costosa campaña del voto estatal. Informes anteriores indicaron que multimillonarios de Silicon Valley han reunido más de 340 millones de dólares y gastan más de un millón diario para impedir la medida, que propone un impuesto único del 5 % sobre la fortuna neta de unos 200 millonarios californianos para generar 100 mil millones de dólares destinados a la salud. Un estudio del NBER citado por Fortune estimó que el impuesto podría recaudar unos 30 mil millones, pero la posible emigración de los millonarios podría costar al estado alrededor de 39 mil millones de dólares.
