> You still have half a billi left in your bank account to live your life like a king... you'll be fine trust me.

I notice that people tend to be much more okay with unfairness as long as it doesn't affect them.

Consider that to 99% of the humans having $500k does mean "living like a king", and I bet that Joe who works at the gas station will think "you'll be fine with half a mil, trust me" when he thinks about taking half of your salary.

If you make $1M you are a rich person, if you make $100k you are a rich person, if you make $40k you are still in the top 0.57% of the richest people in the world (http://www.globalrichlist.com).

People who justify taxing people richer than they are seem to forget that there's 6.7 billion people thinking the same way and using the same logic to justify taking their stuff.
