   I personally support a 70% marginal tax on all income over $100,000, and I make well over that
You can easily simulate that for your own taxes simply by making the appropriate contribution via pay.gov and/or directing any refund from your existing tax return via the appropriate line on Form 1040.

Please read the rest of the comment thread. I cannot simulate that in that way. I want to live in a world where all income over $100K is taxed at 70%, because that changes the housing market, because the housing market is my biggest motivation for making more money. (And it changes just about every other market, too.) I do not want to live in a world where I alone lose 70% of my income over $100K and nobody else does. That's not even a tax.
