FLAT TAX. 18% of income would do.

Also, No taxation without respiration.

Actually the middle class is the most taxed group. The real rich don't work jobs and can pay some of the lowest rates possible with foundations, trusts, and tax rates no higher than long term capital gains rates, or they simply amass unrealized gains for decades or longer. Somebody making $110,000 at a job isn't rich. Owning assets in excess of $50 million dollars, not working a job..thats rich.
