I’m not for stealing all their money. I’m for a much higher progressive income tax top rate at least. like we had in the US during the 50s. worldwide.

Yes I am aware that you want a grossly unfair and abusive rate that will take the overwhelming majority of their resources/wealth but not all of it… and again, taking the overwhelming majority of money from people on the criteria that they have proven themselves the most effective wealth generators in society (several orders of magnitude above millionairs) is again probably the most self destructive thing you could do.

Thing is, you are also not well studied on this. The effective tax rate paid by the rich in 1950s was more or less the same as it is today.

Here is an explanation along with a chart of actual tax rates for you:
