1) It's crazy that "income over $10 million should be taxed at 70 percent" is considered a politically suicidal position, while the GOP's unconditional support for cutting taxes on the rich -- a policy opposed by most *GOP* voters -- is not.
2) Last year, @DataProgress and YouGov blue polled a *90 percent rate on all income above $1 million,* and found it was MUCH less unpopular than Donald Trump's alternative. nymag.com/intelligencer/…
3) And previous research suggested that establishing a maximum income of $1 million -- i.e., taxing all income above that sum at 100% rate -- isn't as unpopular as cutting taxes on the rich. nymag.com/intelligencer/…
