Factor in the various impacts of Social Security taxes, property taxes, state taxes, and sales taxes among different incomes groups, and you might have yourself some worthwhile analysis.

As it is, though, bottom-earners pay more social security tax than they do income tax in the first place.

The corporate tax is a big problem, and I think it should be halved.

BTW did you know that when Clinton was president the top 10 % paid only 67%? LOL
