So, hypothetically speaking, you're saying that losing more than half of my income would be trivial. I think not.
No, I definitely wouldn't work as hard knowing that I'd just be losing most of my money anyway. In fact, eventually I'd probably just move to a different country where the tax income rates weren't so ridiculously high.
Bullshit, you wouldn't uproot your life over a couple grand. You're losing half the income on money above $500,000. If you make $550,000, only $50,000 is taxed at 50%. Stop lying.
