Um, how isn't this a thing already? (Millionaire=people who earn $1M yearly)
Sorry for Fox News, but it's the best source with this headline and it says it's bipartisan so we should probably be good.

I wonder if you could contest this under the claim that you disagree with the valuation of your assets.

Say your child made a finger painting that you hung on the fridge. Some kind of crazed, but highly respected/influential, art appraiser sees it on a visit and claims it's worth $10,000,000. So you can't have any communal benefits unless you sell it (but you don't want to, because it's your kid's - not to mention actually selling it can be hard). Would there be no avenue to claim that the appraiser is an idiot, and it's barely worth the paper it's on?
