What is a high enough marginal tax rate? 60%? 70%. this would seem far less burdensome if greater than 60% of voters actually paid income tax.
Not really, the amount of revenue you'd get from the bottom 30% would be almost negligible. It would barely make a difference.
As for what the rate should be? I don't know what the ideal rate is. More than it is now though. Probably double digit more than it is now on the absolute highest earners (meaning, seven-eight figure earners). And moderately higher on the mid-six figure earners.
