We need additional tax brackets

Reader comment on: Averages and Incomes

This is why we need additional tax brackets. Perhaps 45% on income over a million, 55% on income over 500 million. For someone making 500 million, there is zero link between how hard they work and how much they earn, so the argument that 55% would cause people to stop working makes no sense.
