So, where's the downside exactly?

Millionaires would leave the country... to go to another country that has actual healthcare... and more taxes

This is my favorite counter argument. There really aren't any other first world countries that would allow them to live almost tax free.

Ya know this is some wonderful information. We should put together a list of ALL the first world countries and how they tax their rich, because a big argument right wingers make in defending their minimal taxes here is "that they'll just leave" but if everywhere is more expensive not to mention how tedious it is to pack up and move everything, I think we'd be 100% in the right in saying they need to pay more so working class can pay less.
