France’s left-wing New Popular Front (NPF), now the largest group in parliament, has proposed several ambitious policies, including a 90% tax on any annual income above €400,000. The NPF aims to introduce a progressive tax rate for high earners. This proposal would significantly impact individuals with substantial incomes. France is on the brink of a financial meltdown as the wealthy plan to flee the country due to a 90 percent tax.

The French bond market is at odds with the Far Left running the kingdom. French bond spreads are heading towards European Crisis highs with the crazies proposing a 90% marginal tax rate. I’ll invite Art Laffer to Paris for a teach-in on how that will work out for them. pic.twitter.com/hgXfgVuDhG
