Would Hollyweird millionaire leftists support this idea to help them pay more tax voluntarily?

This sounds like a good idea to me, so people like Bono, Babsy Streisand and others can kick in a few million while they lecture the little people about how they don't pay enough tax. ************************ The Tax Me More Act April 11, 2008 We recently suggested that if Bill and Hillary Clinton are eager to pay more taxes, they should write a personal check to the U.S. Treasury to compensate for the lower tax rates they so frequently decry. And lo, here comes legislation to make it easier for the former first lady and other pseudo-populists to do just that. California Republican John Campbell yesterday introduced in the House his "Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is Act," which would amend the tax code to allow individuals to make voluntary donations to the federal government above their normal tax liability. The bill would place a new line on IRS tax forms to make this easy. Mr. Campbell says he has heard the "cries" of those wealthy Americans – Mrs. Clinton, Warren Buffet, Barbra Streisand – who reject the lower tax rates passed in 2001 and 2003 and complain that they and their fellow rich don't pay enough. "It's a great injustice that citizens wishing to fulfill their dream of paying more taxes cannot simply check a box on their 1040 form to make a donation," he says. His bill would give liberals a chance to salve their consciences without having to raise taxes on millions of Americans who already feel overtaxed as it is.

Answer:
Of course not. The only reason they are against the tax cuts is because a Republican cut them. I definitely didn't hear them screaming when Bill Clinton cut taxes.
