I don't know about HN-in-general, but I support taxing the rich while being quite aware that I'm in the top half (though not the top 80%) and might thus potentially pay higher taxes as a result.

People can be willing to contribute to the public good; whether or not taxes are the most efficient way to do this, they're more effective than ending up in decision-paralysis over where to donate.
