Significantly higher taxes for people who are TOO RICH to begin with?
BTW, that idiot saying of the Duchess of Windsor: "You can never be too thin or too rich" was untrue. Ask people who are starving (something she knew nothing about)or have anorexia (although anorexics would agree just before they dropped dead).
No man should be so rich he has nothing left to buy but his government.
