Under capitalism it would be laughably easy to circumvent, and even in premise it is flawed because it would only target the small number of top CEO's.

The truly rich does not even recive wages.

So then tax all capital gains as income. I don't get why capital gains get taxed less than income. If anything they should be taxed more.
