Nobel laureates back California billionaire tax in open letter

Original: Economics Nobel Laureates' Letter Supporting the California Billionaire Tax [pdf]

The letter, hosted by economist Gabriel Zucman, a leading advocate of wealth taxation, argues the levy is economically sound. Supporters say endorsements from such prominent economists strengthen the measure's credibility against critics who claim it would drive the wealthy out of the state.
