We consider the idea of a wealth tax proposed by some in the US presidential race. We get reaction to the idea from ordinary Americans in New York and Los Angeles. Morris Pearl, former managing director at BlackRock and chairman of the group Patriotic Millionaires tells us why he supports a wealth tax. French journalist Anne-Elizabeth Moutet discusses why France dismantled its Solidarity Tax on Wealth. And we further consider the arguments on both sides with Vanessa Williamson of the Brookings Institution, who supports a wealth tax, and Chris Edwards of the Cato Institute, who is opposed.
Also in the programme, we ask technology journalist Ina Fried what's behind Apple's decision to bans all vaping apps from its app store.
Plus, musician Taylor Swift is embroiled in a dispute with two music company executives, which is threatening her appearance at a major awards ceremony in the US, and a Netflix documentary about her life. The British music copyright lawyer Jonathan Coad brings us the background.
