Re: "Soaking the very very rich isn't going to produce much revenue."

No reason we should have the top marginal rate kick-in at $200,000 though!

I'd prefer to keep lower rates for incomes @ $200,000 and less... while moving a new top marginal rate much higher, perhaps @ $5 million, or $15 million a year or something like that.

I see no reason for a dentist making $200,000 a year to pay the same marginal rate as a hedge fundie raking in a half Billion a year....
