The only people it’s worth it for are the connected billionaires who can scoop up assets cheap while the rest of us end up as serfs.

The Netherlands has had one forever, and it is not in economic collapse AFAIK.
It’s not a question of collapse but rather whether said wealth tax causes more capital flight and or evasion/avoidance than it brings in. If enough wealth leaves your country that your tax base is lower and tax revenues are down then that tax isn’t working.
Im not familiar enough with the Netherlands economy or tax structure to talk about it
