Quick note, but social security, and welfare make up more than half of the government's expenses, so if we could optimize those systems it would probably help more than just slashing the military budget (although goodness knows how much they waste in attempts to keep unnecessary money from being cut from next years budget). Also, taxes on the rich can get out of control pretty quickly. For instance, in Hollywood around the 1960s-70s, after making a certain amount of money actors would only get 6 cents out of every dollar they made, which is ridiculous, regardless of how much they already have.
