    In most countries it’s perfectly legal to drink in public, if you’re not driving of course, so it’s a non-issue. In the US it’s illegal most(?) places/cities, but if you put your drink in a paper bag the cops aren’t legally allowed to check what’s in it without a pat down/frisk warrant. That’s my understanding of it at least.

    You don’t really tax individuals, you tax the wealth regardless of who owns it. So 90% tax on unused wealth, the ‘hoarded’ excess of wealth that no individual needs and which could benefit others. Progressive taxation means you tax someone’s wealth less up to a certain point, let’s say 10 million, and you tax more on any wealth above that.

    90% is probably still low, it should really be at whatever percentage wealth can’t accumulate.
