Hot take: If I was super rich I'd rather put my money in my own charities where I can control how the money is managed and where it goes. If I hand it over to the Federal government, a lot of it will probably go to programs I fundamentally opposed.
Not to say that the super-rich shouldn't pay any more in taxes, I'm not really qualified to say. But these populistic initializes are mostly smoke and mirrors. They aren't going to work, and if they did work they aren't going to make as much difference as people hope.
