To a degree this really did happen in Norway. But, the whiny, parasitic, sanctimoniously hypocritical little shits that took their ball and fucked off to Switzerland (incidentally: thanks, Switzerland, both ironically and… not) were still only a tiny proportion of the income from that same specific kind of wealth tax. The media just put the usual level of disproportionate focus on it, because the most blatantly scummy of the filthy rich have it so bad, poor dudes.

Coincidentally, Switzerland also has wealth taxes.
Apparently lenient enough ones that they’re gathering tax refugees. And I’m not even one to point fingers, we’re sloppy enough about this in Norway.
