It's like you're not even considering the feelings of the millionaires and billionaires with 72 houses each and I for one just won't stand for it.

I can't wait for the "rational" peoples argument against taxing the rich. Will it be something like a slippery slope fallacy? Maybe it will be "it's unfair to thoses that only just recently got rich." I'm thinking though they will go with, "it's not going to make a meaningful difference" then try and sell us trickle down in some new way.

The only rational argument against taxing the rich is that if you do it piecemeal, they'll just move to a lower tax area.
