There's an interesting book about to be published by a Dutch fiscal expert who advocates to replace all income based taxes with a single flat tax on wealth, "thus removing pressure from people who derive income from work and giving them a chance to build wealth, plus simplifying our notoriously complex tax system."
For context, the Netherlands has one of the worst rates of wealth inequality in the world.
