I have no problem taxing the the top 1% of income earners disproportionately. Hell, they are the only ones who benefited from the past 10 years! More importantly, the top 1% of income earners now control 42% of the financial wealth in this country. The bottom 80% of our population only controls 7% of the financial wealth. Who else are you going to tax? If it were up to me I would widen the net to tax the top 10% of income earners at progressively higher rates.

I've included a handy chart to help you get your head around the numbers.
