The bottom half of taxpayers pay 4% of income taxes

I wonder if anyone else has the experience of the wealthier you become, the less taxes you pay. These statistics wrt taxpayers are usually based on income, which is a bogus representation of true net worth. I'd like to see a net worth vs. taxable income graph of all taxpayers, I'll bet its inversely proportional. I agree with your points, I'm just disputing these broad claims.
