And here's the fact: the fact is it doesn't solve the problem. First of all if you taxed these people at 100 percent basically next year you said 'Look every penny you make next year the government's going to take it from you ' it still doesn't solve the debt.

I spent my whole life in the private sector 25 years in the private sector.

It doesn't do good to open doors for someone who doesn't have the price to get in. If he has the price he may not need the laws. There is no law saying the Negro has to live in Harlem or Watts.
