Hey, They need to "pay their fair share" too...Why shouldn't they have a have some skin in the game, maybe it will make them reevaluate their politics and who they vote for...?
Do they do. As I stated before if aggregate all taxes paid by the poor it is a higher percentage of their income as opposed to those in the highest income bracket.
