You can keep repeating that all you want, but that doesn’t make it true. There are no “John Galts” in this world. Only an idiot would shut down a business that generates $100 million dollars of profit over a tax bill that climbed from $20 million dollars to $30 million dollars.

No, but he’ll use his money to get you voted out in favor of me, because I’ll cut his tax bill back a ways. Or he’ll move parts of it oversea to evade taxes. Either way, you lose. Redistribution is a bad idea. Much better to improve the lot of the lower classes through market forces.
