What about those who've worked hard to become rich, remain rich through smart investing, and decide not to work anymore? Should they be taxed more than when they were rich and working?

That would totally remove the logic behind lowering taxes on the wealthy.
Aren't we lowering their taxes so they will work harder and be more productive?

So you're saying that people will try to make money even if taxes were higher, and that people who feel they have enough money will take it easy, WHOA, you are blowin' my mind here....
