The point remains you look silly defending raising taxes on the wealthy.

The top 1 percent of taxpayers received almost 17.5 percent of all income and paid a third of all income taxes in 2003," Ok. We have made progress. Anything over 20% is going to sound very impressive and give the appearance that the poor rich 1%ters are suffering under a huge and unfair tax burden. That might be true if they made only a few million dollars but its more likely they made a few billion dollars and very much deserve to pay 20% or 33% or 40% of the tax burden whichever is the correct percentage.
