Salaries are taxed but it is the assets of the rich that should be taxed more.

We need to chase them down in offshore islands like the Caymans and the Isle of Man. The investments are hidden from taxes.

Doctors and lawyers can earn $250,000 per year but may not have assets like 10 mansions, yachts etc?
