There is actually a much simpler solution, although it will never happen -- The investor class, those who, own most of the wealth in the USA, do not work, and are taxed at the lowest rate possible, despite earning the largest incomes, only pay 15% on their capital gains (income). If the rate were raised to just 20% on their profits, we would no longer have deficit spending, and the 1% of the 1% would never feel it. Unfortunately this country is founded on the principle that the richer you are, the less accountable, and responsible, to society, you need to be. Too bad - an easy fix.
