Yes, you should definitely place higher taxes on the fruits of a positive behavior. That'll teach people to save and invest more.

I find it strange that the people who most often support raising capital gains taxes are the least likely to understand how a capital gain is realized in the first place. It seems the usual reaction is 'someone has money making money??? let's take some from those rich bastards!'
