Mass. passed a high-income surtax a few years ago, with the result that we raied a lot of funds for schools & infrastructure, and we atill have plenty of rich people. Wealthy people hate paying taxes, but after paying, they're still pretty wealthy. And, some of them like living in a state with decent schools, health care, etc.
