Tax the rich to pay for ... everything?

I don't even need to say anything, just look at the last paragraph:
Evasion is another concern experts raise when rates are hiked too high or too frequently. If high income taxpayers feel their tax burden too burdensome, they are more likely to seek out legitimate tax shelters. But also the higher rates go, Kies said, "the more it creates an atmosphere for cheating."
NO FUCKING SHIT. You start punishing people for their success... AGAIN... and since we know all rich people are bad at math and that's how they got rich... they won't be thinking... "Hm, with some clever accounting, I can pay a TON less tax and give the finger to those idiots that think they can steal my hard-earned cash.", but instead: "Oh, gee, gosh, golly, please take my money."
Anyway. Grats.
