what doesn't everyone pay the same tax rate?

a working stiff paying 10% on 20k pays 2k in taxes.
a "rich" guy paying 10% on a million pays 100k in taxes.

so then why are "rich" people screwed and have to pay 39% yet the working stiff that can't afford his kids that I pay for ends up paying zero in taxes?

nothing more than buying votes....

rich people are the newest enslaved minority.........
