The wealthy pay a LOWER percent of their income than do people who make 
less than they do, and that includes ONLY the income they declare and 
for which they cannot get silly deductions such as living expenses.

Wages, for example, are taxed at a much higher rate than are 
investments. Sales taxes and state taxes impact the those with less 
money more.

You look at one part of the tax equation and try to push that is how 
taxes work IN GENERAL, but they do not.

There is a reason more people back the top rate of 70% than back the 
Trump tax cut for the wealthy.
