longtimecomics fan, apparently you have not seen the figures which show continuously that the top 5% of wage earners pay 60% of income taxes, and the top 50% pay over 97% of the income taxes paid. Also, if you’re paying 30% in withholdings every year, you obviously don’t understand the concept of the W-4 form, unless the 30% you’re talking about includes Social Security and Medicare taxes (let’s not quibble about semantics, those two deductions are taxes just as truly as if they were called such).
