    Nailed it.

    What we need is a securities tax: a tax on every stock, bond, and other financial instruments in their portfolio. No need to liquidate it; the shares are simply transferred to the IRS annually. They’ll liquidate those shares slowly over time.

    Natural persons are exempted on the first $10 million of their portfolio. No exemptions for artificial persons.
