When the marginal rate gets high enough, other things are found to do with the money, like investment and research, stuff you can write off.
But I was simply pointing out that as a matter of simple observation confiscatory progressive rates are not in themselves automatically bad for the economy, the government or much of anybody. But one can see the same thing in Europe and most other "advanced" nations now.
And one can predict that here "faith based" economic "thinkers" that believe high progressive income taxation is a bad thing will raise a bunch of distractions and change the subject since the observable facts are inconvenient to their faith.
