> Why would the next generation want to take up that room? Are you seriously asking why anyone would consider a career in which they are "only" able to keep 27% of any money above $10 million they make in a single year? You're incredibly out of touch if you don't think most people would kill for that opportunity. > Would you take up a career where despite long & expensive education, long hours, hard work, and lives-in-your-hands responsibility, you kept just 27% of your income? Yes I would absolutely do that for the privilege of keeping only 27% of anything more than $10 million a year I make. This is an incredibly good problem to have. > would you put in a million dollars of effort to net a quarter of that in return? This is not how marginal tax rates work. Consider putting down Atlas Shrugged and consulting a remedial math textbook.
