Ocasio-Cortez recently called for a 70% tax rate. Are you in support of this?
Do you feel as though this is too much?
Or maybe, this isn’t high enough?

Do you support Ocasio-Cortez’s 70% tax rate?
Or, is it too high?
Or, is it not high enough?

Fixed the subject so that it applies to the audience it was intended for.

Call me crazy, but I have a sinking suspicion this OP isn't in good faith.

Top marginal tax rate on any income over $10M per year.

And the majority of the country is in support of it.

Ok, thank you for responding.
I have no concern as to whether or not the rest of the country supports it. I am asking you your opinion. The majority of the country now depends upon government assistance now, so any increase in tax will have no ill affect on them.
Do you think it should be higher? Or is 70% perfect?

70% is a good start. We had a great period of prosperity when it was 90% - don't you want prosperity?

It really is funny to see how you guys don't realize what's going on here. I mean, predicted, but still funny.

Well I don’t think there is a link. But I know for certain that a majority of the country now depends upon government assistance, and that a large percentage pays no taxes at all. So why would they have any objection to higher taxes. It’s not their money..

On incomes over $10 million? Yeah, maybe. I’d be happier around 60%. It’s not a wild
idea, and we’ve done it before without catastrophe.
