100% tax is insane, but high marginal rates on the uber rich is a welcome idea.
The American ultra rich have only themselves to blame for the opinions of most young people in the world. Didn't know when to stop, beginning in 1981. Trump isn't even going to get a tax package out of Congress in 2017...his ideas are totally at odds with what people want. This isn't 1980. Massive increases to military spending here and a massive tax cut for the rich ain't going to fly, Drumpf.
America and Britain had the highest headline income tax rates in the 1950s & 1960s they had the slowest growth.
