It sucks for it would penalize those who earn their money honestly.
It would not save our world since it would never be implementable, even if it made sense to do so.
Not to mention such a plan would depends on "valuations". Heck, it's an exercise in futility already to place a monetary value on things that are ostensibly easy to value. Try valuing things such as artwork, for example, located in a warehouse in another country.
You'd be very hard pressed to find a reason for a person that wealthy to continuously subject themselves to that process for the privilege of what.. possessing a certain Country's passport?
I mean, it would have to be a worldwide plan to even get off the ground. But the wealthy in question are mobile and already employ the best people to specifically find strategies to minimize wealth losses and maximize their wealth earnings. Such people would simply hide their wealth offshore.
Who would govern such a plan and how would corruption be accounted for in such a case?
If I though for another 10 minutes, could come up with a zillion other issues but, I can;t be bothered.

Ok, that's a real answer and I understand my idea was naive. Thank you.
