The Hidden Lightness with Jimmy Hinton – California's aggressive wealth tax accelerates capital flight, job losses, and economic instability as investors and businesses leave the state. New York follows a similar path, promising expanded public benefits while shrinking its tax base. As high earners exit, financial pressure shifts to the middle class through higher costs, reduced services, and long-term fiscal strain...

California’s proposed one‑time 5% wealth tax on billionaires has triggered a massive financial retreat, with an estimated $1 trillion in wealth already moved out of the state as ultra‑rich residents shift assets and business entities elsewhere. Critics warn the measure is accelerating an exodus that undermines the very revenue it seeks to raise, while Gov. Gavin Newsom himself has called the proposal “really damaging” amid reports of billionaires relocating money and operations out of California. Supporters argue the tax targets extreme inequality, but the economic fallout is already reshaping Silicon Valley’s financial landscape.

In “Kim on a Whim,” Kim warns that California's proposed billionaire wealth tax could open the door to nationwide asset taxation—even on personal items like jewelry or furniture. She and Marc argue it's a dangerous precedent that violates privacy and the spirit of the Fourth Amendment, calling it part of a broader leftist push to control private wealth. The segment expands to criticize personal property taxes, St. Louis's earnings tax, and the political rot in high-tax blue states driving residents and businesses to red states like Florida and Tennessee. Marc closes by warning that without fiscal sanity, America's economic engine could sink under progressive policies. #MarcCoxShow #KimOnAWhim #CaliforniaTax #WealthTax #MiddleClass #Taxation #BlueStateExodus #EconomicFreedom

This week's show features stories from Radio Deutsche-Welle, France 24, Radio Havana Cuba, and NHK Japan. http://youthspeaksout.net/swr251212.mp3 (29:00) From GERMANY- Trump published a new National Security Strategy which says many critical things about Europe. Some wondered what this means for future relations and whether the US was attempting to meddle in European politics. First a review of what the new National Security Strategy says and does not say. Then analysis with DWs US Bureau Chief Ines Pohl. She points out that the document has not gotten massive attention as it has in Europe, and that the US appears to take sides with the far right political parties in many EU nations. She discusses the documents term civilizational erasure and the loss of identity from large immigration. From FRANCE- An interview with Christopher Sabatini, a senior fellow at Chatham House in London. They discuss the situation of the US military killing alleged drug runners and now, boarding and seizing an oil tanker moving Venezuelan oil. Is the flow of drugs from the country a key factor in the use of the military, or is it oil or regime change. Christopher talks about the illegality of US actions and that seizing their oil would hurt the US economy. From CUBA- Many in Honduras are saying the recent presidential election results were manipulated with US influence. The Colombian government accused the US of carrying out technical sabotage against Venezuelan airspace including deceptive signals and altering GPS systems. At least 21,000 Palestinian children are disabled or mutilated from the Israeli war on Gaza. From JAPAN- Japan is considering expanding its surcharge income tax on the so-called ultra-wealthy, from those making $19 million to those making $4 million. The leaders of Russia and India held a summit in New Delhi, talking about peace and increased trade and security. Ford will join Renault in building new small electric cars in France.

It’s a long term necessity, but tragically, short term policy-makers put off a solution essential to a strong economy and restoration of our republican form of government. As of today, both the economy and democracy are in a downward spiral. The post A Wealth Tax: Boost the Economy and Democracy appeared first on KDA Keeping Democracy Alive Podcast & Radio Show.

Here we go again – California's Gavin Newsom wants to impose a retroactive 5% wealth tax on billionaires, because apparently watching taxpayers flee at a rate of one per minute isn't fast enough. This brilliant plan targets the 220 most financially mobile people in the state, the same folks who can literally pack up and leave tomorrow – just like Jeff Bezos did when Washington State decided to squeeze him for a billion dollars.We break down the insanity of California's latest revenue grab, compare it to similar failed policies in Seattle and Chicago, and examine the real numbers: every 2 minutes, Texas and Florida each gain a new taxpayer while blue states hemorrhage residents. From $20 fast food wages eliminating 19,000 jobs to gas prices hitting $5.59 in Seattle versus $2.15 in red-state Oklahoma, the pattern is crystal clear.Do you think billionaires will just bend over and take it, or follow Bezos to Florida? How long before the last taxpayer turns off the lights in California? Hit subscribe if you're tired of watching politicians slit their own throats with virtue-signaling tax policies that drive away the very people funding their bloated budgets!

With the budget just days away, Rachel Reeves is facing yet another black hole in the public finances - after ditching plans to raise income tax, it's been widely reported that the government will go for a “smorgasboard” of tax rises and spending cuts to plug the gap, but critics on the left and right say it won't address the deeper structural rot in Britain's economy. So on this episode of The Fourcast, Krishnan Guru-Murthy is joined by two economists with radically different visions for how to turn the country around. James Meadway, host of the Macrodose podcast and former economic adviser to John McDonnell, argues inequality is choking growth and that only a major reset of wealth, investment and a green industrial strategy can revive the UK. Catherine McBride served on the last government's Trade and Agricultural Commission and she thinks the real problem is over-regulation, high taxes and net-zero. And Channel 4 News' economics correspondent Helia Ebrahimi also joined the pod to cut through the political noise - and test whether any of their ideas actually add up.

This week's show features stories from France 24, Radio Deutsche-Welle, NHK Japan, and Radio Havana Cuba. http://youthspeaksout.net/swr251107.mp3 (29:00) From FRANCE- Beginning with a Press Review on how left-leaning European leaders are inspired by the way Mamdani developed his campaign in NYC. Following government plans for more austerity programs and cuts in the pension program, wealth taxes were proposed on the assets of French citizens owning over 100 million Euros- not an income tax but a tax on possessions. 86% of the French population supported the idea, the Parliament came up with a lite version, and then failed to pass any wealth tax at all. This week was the start of the 30th annual UN Climate Change Conference, or COP 30 being held in Brazil. At a preview meeting Brazilian President Lula da Silva expressed his goals in the meeting. From GERMANY- The hurricane disaster in Jamaica, stimulated by global warming, is an example of the importance of limiting greenhouse gas emissions. In the last 2 weeks many nations announced new climate goals. UN Secretary-General Guterres pointed out that the Paris Agreement goal is already a failure but should make countries get more serious not surrender. Then an analysis of the goals of COP 30 and the effect Trump not sending a delegation and calling climate change a hoax will have on the conference. From JAPAN- More than 5 feet of rain fell in parts of Vietnam in 24 hours, the most ever recorded in the country. In December Australia is going to start the ban on social media for those under 16. Following another Ukrainian bombing of a Russian oil port, Russia heavily bombed eastern Ukraine. From CUBA- Last weekend the US military bombed another boat in the Caribbean alleged to be carrying drugs to the US , bringing the death toll to at least 64- the UN has demanded the US stop these attacks. According to Ox-Fam the 10 richest Americans have increased their wealth by $700 billion since the January. Israel continues bombing in Gaza and has only allowed 24% of aid trucks agreed to to enter Gaza. Then a report on the proposals for rebuilding the Gaza Strip.
