Many of the "deductions" you're talking about are phased out at high income levels.

300K being high, certainly.

But all this is beside the point. When you talk about adding 5 or so percentage points to the flat FICA/Medicare tax, it is a huge drain on the economy because those taxes apply to the first dollar EVERYONE, even low-earners, make.
