Remember that changing income taxes does not help with this, and anyone who tells you they're going to raise the top marginal income-tax rate is either deceiving you or doesn't understand how to accomplish their goal.
What you need, if you want to do this, is a multi-angle approach of raising the top marginal rate, skyrocketing the capital-gains rate (the uber-wealthy don't make their money in salary, they make it in investments), and adopting the harshest and most stringent possible enforcement mechanisms against people who try to hide money from the tax. Drone strikes on Caribbean banks need to be not out of the question if you want to make this really work.
(and of course there's no way in hell anyone would pass all of that)
