If you tax him theres some euclidean point where it no longer makes sense to invest.

Yes, that is exactly the point! That one rich person can not invest any more to screw everyone! There can still be governments, non-profits and cooperatives to invest. Only they have to invest with a multitude of people in mind.

If you're some kind of genius programmer or CEO who went to Harvard would you stay for 25%?

Yes that is totaly fair. No one can be so much of a genius to justify earning so much more. Also, what kind of asshole genius doesn't want to contribute to a better society?
