I think the issue with most datacenters is the frequency, not necessarily the noise level. A low hum that permeates everything, even if it's not "loud" can become debilitating.

The 2% would be applied to households worth 100 million dollars or more, I'm pretty sure they could spare the change without much impact on their lifestyles.

Yeah, a 95% marginal tax rate and both a massive inheritance and transfer of assets while alive (not sure how it's called) taxes would solve most of the problem.
