Rather than tax the top 1%, Obama needs an executive order to require a speeding fine system similar to Finland and Denmark.
Finland, Denmark (unlimited)
Highest Fines: $200,000 (or more)
Even if you're one of the richest men in Europe, a nearly $200,000
speeding ticket is going to pang just a little (and that was in 2002,
when $200,000 was a lot of money). The Trick here is that Finland, and
nearby Denmark, both levy speeding fines depending on the annual income
of the driver unfortunate enough to pick up a ticket. In this case,
records showed that Jussi Salonoja, a 27-year-old heir to a northern
European meatpacking empire, earned $11.5 million in 2002, which after a
complex calculation
by the courts resulted in the world-record fine of about $200,000. And
all that for driving 50 mph in a 25 mph zone. A Finnish business
executive also had a $165,000 fine reduced to a mere $9000 after he
restated his earnings to the courts.

No, we just need to tax the selfish and greedy 51% that pay no federal taxes, and just want more entitlements.
I just read an article that only 19% did not pay taxes during the Regan years ... pretty good years too. This grew to 25% under Clinton ... still not too bad. Under Bush, the compassionate conservative, it grew to 30% ... in just 3 years under Oblamer it is now 50.6%
I have said from day one ... either Oblamers strategy is to bankrupt the US or create complete class warefare to try and destroy capitalism.
He is dangerous and evil.
