7. Add brackets at the top - every $100,000 over whatever gets a 1%, 10%, ?% increase in marginal rate.
There IS NO REASON why anyone needs to "make" millions of dollars a year.

And those grabbing that much are not the real contributors to society. Surgeons do not make 8-figures.

Only those who generate income off of other people's money pull down those kinds of obscene incomes that (IMO) warrant and richly deserve almost complete confiscation. They are destructive to society in so many ways that they should not be allowed.

That's my belief and I'm sticking to it.
