The true victim of a tax system like this would be the single-income family. A single mom working at a job that barely keeps her at the poverty line does not pay anywhere near 30% tax when you consider all the refunds and assistance she gets. Yet she has 3 children, so she consumes more than a rich family with a modest house and no children
If you are in favor it giving to the rich and taking from the poor just say so, I don't agree but it's better than covering up your arguments by saying they're for the good of the 'people.'

Cal, I'm sure that there are many ppl who would take issue with your logic.
I would just like to ask you about each of these statements you made.
1) Is it the single moms responsibility or Gov't's to take care of her and her 3 kids?
2) What is the rich taking from the poor.
From each according to their ability, to each according to their need? Sounds like that exactly what your philosophy is.
Your intentions may be noble, but the result of your ideas would be total failure. You would create a place worst off than the one you started with.
