Soaking the Rich

Some people have very steep learning curves. Despite a mountain of evidence that high tax rates on the wealthy do not result in the anticipated revenues to government, Britain increased those rates to 50% a while back. Not surprisingly, Britain is discovering that trying to soak the rich doesn't work very well. 
 
I suppose we could hope that Washington policy makers are paying attention. But they won't.
