With their spending driving the deficit upward now

2. I'd be all for raising their tax rate to 70%

With all loopholes and deductions closed other than the same kind of chump deductions we peons qualify for. Raise capital gains to the same rate. Bring back the inheritance tax for anyone getting over 5 million--and use a progressive rate on it from there. No more boutique tax breaks like writing off mortgages for vacay homes. You get one, and fuck you if you want more. Need to have two homes? If you can afford two, you can afford the taxes on the second home. If you can't, eat the mortgage on that second home. Or rent. I don't care what you do, but you don't get a second home tax break. Ever. Period.

And raise the corporate tax to 50%. Maybe use some of Warren's plan to require corporations to meet certain requirements for bailouts and apply it to their taxes, too. If you pay shit wages, do stock buybacks, overcompensate your executives, and so on, you get taxed MORE.

I'm ready to go French Revolution on these rich fuckers. They should be glad that I'd rather go after their money than their heads. But the latter can be arranged, if they insist on being assholes.
