Except the more you tax the rich, the more they will try to get more money for themselves. Like, if they own a business, they will raise their prices if they could. This all just trickles down to the middle/lower classes, and just hurts us in the end.
Anyways, I'd much rather income tax was gotten rid of, and repalced with something like a consumption tax.
