Would these be the books?

I'm still in my 20's, and I have a few thousand in a 401k right now, but I'm right wondering what will happen if the 40% of people with 401k's today are all millionaires like they say we should be in 40 years. At the same time, car prices have gone up by a factor of 10 since the 1960s. And house prices aren't too far from that either. Will 1 or 2 million be anything great in the 2050's?

My initial idea wasn't really a forced tax, it was a threat of a tax if you didn't spend it or give away your money. If it wasn't retroactive, very few people would ever pay the tax directly, but the economy would be stimulated, some people in high-paying positions might have to choose between working for a lot less or letting someone else run the business and let them reach the limit, and then another person would do it. I could see this limiting the size of businesses, or it would make the workers earn more money (profit-sharing).
