Higher, nothing. There should be a rate above which it’s taxed at 100%. No one needs to be as rich as Musk or Zuckerberg or Bezos.
And yet you guys wonder why millionaires move to Texas. You increase the taxes above a certain number and they’ll take all their wealth, consumption and their taxes to another state.
Taxes should be sustainable. High taxes on rich people aren’t sustainable because they’ll leave taking whatever taxes they pay and whatever consumption they do which contributes to the economy.
The wealth that they hoard? The consumption they import? Let me guess, they’re also “job creators.”
Who pays your salary?
A corporation. Not a rich individual.
Who do you think created these corporations? Rich people with aim to make more money.
Capitalism pays your salary. Without capitalism and with theft of wealth via unfair taxation, your job won’t exist.
Rich people do not need to exist for corporations to exist. Also, you think wage theft doesn’t happen under capitalism?

All right! Go capitalism!
And no millioneir will keep his money in a state where those are the tax rates. If you make it too high you literally get nothing.
Awww. Too bad for them. What will we do without millionaires hoarding their wealth?!
No, he’s saying they will keep it. Just in a way that mass gets literally nothing
So either they will get a lot of money or things won’t be any different except millionaires won’t be there hoarding wealth?
I’m not seeing a downside yet.
I think they mean the millionaires will find other ways to hoard it to avoid tax levels they won’t stomach. Fair? No. Reality? Probably.
People make the same argument about not returning to the tax rates of the 1950s. I say let’s try it and find out.
I … honestly would be up for this approach. When do you run for office, sir?
