Well, I would be for it for publicly held corporations. You could do the same thing with super high income taxes.

To: Penelope Dreadful
I mentioned confiscatory taxes in my post. Would you think that confiscatory taxes is essentially an illegal fifth amendment taking of private property for public use? After all, income taxes are legal, but usury is not. Taxes aren't loans, but tax rates that are punitive are not "necessary and proper" to fund federal legislation.

The question I posed was not directly about punishing high income earners, but rather, posing whether maximum wages trickle down to better minimum wages than legislators' arbitrary minimum wages?
