The problem is the 1% hoarding virtually all of the money which brings down the wealth of the U.S. middle class. I'm not talking millions, I'm talking MEGA millions.
What if personal salaries were taxed at a very low rate (5-10 percent) up to 10 million, but anything over that is taxed at 80%? The IRS would make a lot more money, which would be used for the other tax breaks, military expansion, responsible programs, and the like. And the people, from the bottom to the middle class all the way up to the highest class up to 10 million dollars would benefit. Only at the expense of the richest of the rich having less yachts, Ferraris, and mansions that they don't need and they would never even use.
Fair enough?
