They currently pay a higher share than the wealthy.

If we all paid 25% of our income, then we'd all be paying 25% of our
income!

Let's use some simple hypothetical numbers.

If all the people earning less than $30K per year earn 30% of the income
in the nation, then wouldn't it be fair if they paid 30% of the income
tax burden?

If the people earning over $200K per year have 50% of the nations
income, then they *should* pay more than 50% of the nation's income tax.

Wouldn't that be fair?

If those making less than $30,000 paid 30% of their income, then those
making
$200,000 should pay 30% of their income. The first group would pay
$9000, and
the second would pay $60,000. What's not fair about that?

Now, go back and answer the questions in my other post.

It is scary that there are people out there that think like dsk
