Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt and co-founder Sergey Brin are reportedly in disagreement over the strategy and spending of a $100 million campaign against California's Proposition 40, a proposed billionaire wealth tax. Schmidt is reportedly frustrated by the coalition's perceived ineffectiveness, particularly its failure to prevent Democratic endorsement of the tax and the rejection of related counter-measures. The dispute also involves the allocation of funds, with Schmidt preferring a singular focus on the wealth tax, while contributions are also being used to oppose other environmental and policy measures.
