The rich need to waste their money. Not on taxes. When rich people waste money on needless and unnecessary things, those things become necessities for the middle class. Rich people wasted money on items like phones, air travel, air conditioning, vacations, dining out, televisions, home commuters, cell phones, medical breakthroughs, and many more. These were all deemed unnecessary at the time. Average people could live without. Now, the middle class can’t live without these things. Overtax the rich, and you deny yourself future necessities. Those things are unknown, but delayed if rich are unnecessarily taxed. Think about it.
