Tax them at 90% and the government can and should do that all for them.

I like Jimmy Kimmel's proposal to tax the richest person in America at 90%(something along those lines). This way everyone at the uppermost top gives away more money in the process of avoiding the number 1 spot.
Or, you know, they could not try to make money in the first place.
