Threat of California Billionaire Tax Draws Criticism from Ultrawealthy (wsj.com)

>California, home to a host of Silicon Valley and Hollywood titans, had an estimated 255 billionaires last year, more than any other state, according to Altrata, a wealth-intelligence firm. More than one-third of California’s tax revenue comes from the top 1% of earners.

I'm a bit surprised to see the WSJ conflate wealth with earnings.
