In February 1934, Long introduced his "Share Our Wealth" plan over a nationwide radio broadcast. He proposed capping personal fortunes at $50 million and repeated his call to limit annual income to $1 million and inheritances to $5 million. ... These reforms, Long claimed, would end the Great Depression.
