We need taxes for all - also the super-rich.

"Tax the rich" is an official EU petition. The EU Parliament has to deal with it when successful.

7 EU countries must reach the quorum. And in total 1M Votes are needed. Check yours in the chart and share, cross post etc.!

The petition calls for the introduction of a wealth tax on very large fortunes. Sign the petition here

That news is 10 years old.

In the meantime, Macron removed the wealth tax.

Did Depardieu come back to France? There are other places to avoid wealth tax in Europe. Depardieu first moved to Belgium, why go all the way to Russia? Seems to be more than just tax reasons. He is also now a citizen of a United Arab Emirates.

Did Depardieu come back to France?

Why should he trust french government not to screw him over?

Yes, but it doesn't invalitate it in any way.
