Ask the same questions with the promise that if tax rates rise above certain limits, jobs will disappear. Those owning businesses are not going to just give up their wealth without making adjustments.

Mention that everybody’s tax rates will also increase, not just the top earners, and suddenly, nobody would support raising the top rate to 70%, or anybody’s rate.

Cut all taxes.

All government is too big, too intrusive and too expensive.

70% Federal?

As many have said, Federal isn’t the end of it.

After Federal, there’s State and local taxes.

In New York City, that’s another 13%, which leaves only 17% of the original 100%... and there’s still real estate tax and sales tax to be paid.

This is really a “jealousy cap” proposal to make sure no one makes outsize amounts of income.

What they really want... what this is the opening salvo for.. is a direct asset tax on wealth (other than real estate).
