Sure, it shouldn't be their choice by any means, but if they're going to actually step aside and let actual tax policy take effect rather than lobbying tooth and nail to stop it. Good.

If they're just paying lip service, as so often they do... well we're back to the eventual defenestration.

    If rich people would like to preemptively pay more money in to society to stop societal collapse and their own eventual defenestration... I'll take it. There will always be imbalances of power, which we need to effectively regulate and not leave the most powerful to regulate for themselves.
