Davos audience erupts in uneasy laughter at mention of AOC's proposal for a 70% tax on income over $10,000,000

At the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Michael Dell was asked about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's wildly popular proposal to tax income over $10,000,000 at 70%, but before he could answer ('I’m not supportive...And I do not think it will help the growth of the US economy') the audience erupted into laughter, according to CNN. MIT's Erik Brynjolfsson (previously), a co-panelist, was more bullish: 'There’s actually a lot of economics that it's not necessarily going to hurt growth and I think we have to examine it more closely.'
