Question: Obama Tax Plan. Good, Bad? Why?

I'm a neutral person when I ask this "How is doubling the capital gains tax a good idea?" Doesn't that scare the rich away who do indeed fund the country by buying stocks, paying their taxes, buy homes, sell homes etc, etc. Also "how is increasing Dividend Tax good, doesn't that hurt people in the stock market business?". The estate tax as well I heard that it will hurt farmers because their sons who will inherit the farm will have to pay 55% of the properties worth. Also, are we prepared for national health care? I don't think our country is even close to being economically savvy for this.
