Warren proposes a 2% tax on those with a net worth over $50 million.

(A) How ya gonna value assets? Tom Brady may be asking $32 million for his house, but is it really worth it?

(B) How does this tax get past the U.S. Constitution. The sixteenth amendment limits taxing power to "incomes, from whatever source derived", which can loosely be defined as any asset transfer. But assets held are not income, so where is the authority to tax?

Article 1 allows for indirect taxes ("Duties, Imposts, and Excises"), and the power to demand money from the states proportional to their populations.
