美国联合航空公司首席执行官斯科特·柯比因主张实施国家财富税和继承税而招致右翼政界人士和评论员的强烈反对。1柯比在接受《纽约时报》采访时表示,应当建立国家财富税制度,称"这在州层面不会奏效,因为人们会就此迁移"。1他进一步主张实施接近100%税率的继承税,并声称自己愿意缴纳这样的税款。1柯比认为财富不平等对社会构成危险。1
这番言论迅速引发保守派的激烈批评。1前Fox News主持人格伦·贝克等人公开呼吁抵制联合航空。1路易斯安那州州长杰夫·兰德里在社交媒体上讽刺柯比的立场,指出"这样的言论来自一位没有创建联合航空公司,却年薪高达3200万美元的人,实在是大胆得很"。1柯比2025年的年薪为3200万美元。1
Scott Kirby, chief executive of United Airlines, has drawn sharp criticism from right-wing politicians and commentators after calling for the implementation of a national wealth tax and inheritance taxes in an interview with the New York Times.1 Kirby stated that "We should have a national wealth tax – it won't work by state because people will just move," and argued that "I think we should have inheritance taxes that get close to 100% at some level. I would pay them."1 The CEO framed wealth inequality as a threat to society, but his positions have triggered demands for boycotts of the airline.
Former Fox News host Glenn Beck and users on the X platform have called for United Airlines boycotts in response to Kirby's remarks.1 Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry responded sarcastically on X, stating: "How audacious from a guy that didn't even build @united and makes $32 million a year."1 Kirby's 2025 annual compensation stands at $32 million.1
