> In the US, if you taxed the top 1% at 100%

Top 1% of what, earners? Is this just 100% on their income? Does it include capital gains? Does it include corporations? Be clear about what you're hypothetically taxing so we can discuss what else is being left on the table. I'm sure the answer is "a lot", despite the severe sounding "100%".
