if you think sumptuary taxes are necessary, get them passed ~ leave folk's savings alone, even if all they can put away are a few bucks here and there.
Many of our modest 'high earners' are also supporting other adults during the Great Obama Recession ~ they are making an investment ~
I’m for savings, whereas you’d be killing it by taxing savings income like regular earned income!
And I’m not for sumptuary laws—just not for killing people on unearned (investment) income.
