Nah this is too close to a flat tax rate or a consumption tax which the ultra rich always push for because you only get taxed if you spend money.

Thats not what theyre saying. Theyre just saying "dont call it a tax, call it a fee" because that seems to be ok. Hence why the property example was a fee based on size and value. It's not flat.
