Your idea is ludicrous, no matter what the tax rate people will still want to be billionaires, because a billionaire taxed at 99% is still richer than several millionaires combined.
The fact is many of the super rich actually say they should be paying more taxes, Mark Cuban, Warren Buffet and Bill Gates, to name a few.

Re: Microsoft vs Apple vs Other
You, Sir, are wrong in regard to the taxes. Or at least in America the tax rate is much higher. Why does that person care? It's because they earned it, they didn't steal it, they earned it. Something you liberals can't grasp. The problem with it (higher taxes) is that it remove incentive to work hard, to strive, to innovate, and to excel. Remove those, and a free market economy will soar. But if you give hand-outs to large companies such as GM, you remove that incentive. Companies that are going down hill should be allowed to fizzle out. Understand? TheAmerican.

Actually, the super rich account for only 26 percent, and yet if you raised the taxes on them 1 percent, in 10 years you would make 700 billion dollars, to get that same amount from the bottom 50 percent, you would have to take half of everything they own, including property, money and whatever other sources of capital they possess.
Why does someone earning 100 million a year care if you take 40 million, that still leaves them with more money than any reasonable person would need in a lifetime, all for 1 years work.
For the debate question, this macbook is faster than any windows computer of equal cost would be, the cheaper laptops and computers are near useless unless you upgrade the graphics, computer speed and virtually everything else, by which point the mac would be cheaper and still less prone to crashing (I know from experience)

Re: Microsoft vs Apple vs Other
@TheAmerican well I'm a proud conservative republican
They made their money out of hard work and innovation. They diserve their money. However I do believe they should increase very slightly taxes on rich people, but only to make taxes of the same proportions for every american. Socialists are just poor lealous people.
