It can be a nightmare to sell a chunk of your business to outside investors.

It can be a nightmare to sell a chunk of your business to outside investors. Not the selling part per se, the operating after consequences. Imagine having private equity in your house, causing chaos, trying to get people tossed out. You might be better off taking out a loan against the value of the business to pay the tax, if it's a one-time tax. The problem is when they come for the second wealth tax, and then the bi-annual wealth tax, and then the annual wealth tax. There is no likely scenario where it's a one-time tax.
