Yeah, a number of people in the center/right blogosphere have been floating it around. I hope it's on the table.

If we're going to have more redistribution, I'd personally like it to really really hit protected constituencies that support the heck out of redistributing my piece of the pie.

Buffet wants to play in tax policy? Let's take it out his hide.

Heck, I'd say graduate it so that the last $20B in assets is taxed at 50%. If the 1% should pay more, then the 0.01% should pay a LOT more.

That sort of progressive taxation would be a lot less harmful to small business than what's on the table.
