They make a ton of money, but it's not above 80% thanks to the progressive tax curve.

So you think the poor should pay a greater percentage of their income in taxes than the rich?

The tax curve is NOT progressive, in reality.

I can't find stats on income, but I can find that the top 20% own 84% of the wealth in this country.
