  I'm not sure why you're getting downvoted. There's an extra field on the US tax return for this very purpose.

    It's because it's saying the solution is the ephemeral voluntary charity of some billionaires to the problem of wealth concentration. It's idiotic because: a) they're never going to give away so much money as to make themselves anywhere near not the among the wealthiest humans that have ever lived. b) only the civically minding among them will do it meaning the more amoral you are about wealth the better you do under the 'charity taxes' model. Finally c) that charity is inherently unpredictable and is likely to dry up when it's needed in national coffers the most so it's nothing to build a budget on.
