If you consider Regan-level taxation of the wealthy soaking, well, with our country having the greatest disparity of wealth in the industrialized world, they can afford a little soaking. In fact, that disparity is currently at an all time high, measured in a number of ways. One example is the top .01% of earners currently receiving over 6% of all wages.

Let’s tax the hell outta them! It;s not as if they’re doing anything for the economy, and besides, it’s the whole point of the government to equalize results.
