The tax brackets you propose are way to high. You make more, so pay more. LOL!
Ummm... yeah. In fact, under our current system if you make more you pay more. That's pretty much what the term "progressive marginal income tax" means.
I have no problem with people who earn more paying more. In fact, I think they should pay more. I only have a problem with the fact that taxes are so low on the top 1% of earners. I'd like to see an increase in income taxes for people earning over $2.5m to a 95% marginal rate.

Until I got sick and had to go into the hospital several years ago, I had no debt except for a very small mortage...now...major debt all incurred when I had health ins. between the co-pays and what they wouldn't cover I'm now way way in the toilet.
I hope no one ever has to get sick to realize just how bad our health care system is.

Yeah, mabye corporate welfare. You know alot more government subsidies go to large corporations than to poor people. Why don't you stop picking on poor people and take on the big guy that's causing the real problems for a change?
