99.9% of Americans earn less than $10 million a year.
Taxing 0.1% of the population 70% on every dollar AFTER their first ten million would NOT harm the economy.
What other countries spend on health care & infrastructure, we spend on low taxes for the super wealthy.

This type of spending is GOOD for the economy since accumulated wealth doesn't circulate while the economic benefit of improved infrastructure, education and health care is MASSIVELY beneficial to productivity (not to mention quality of life for 320 million people).
I'm seeing this argument in conservative circles that taxing the rich is "unethical."
What utter horseshit.
What's unethical is letting people die in the street from inadequate health care just so some banker can afford a second yacht.
