the guy making 42K pays half of his income into FICA tax plus federal income tax.

Well maybe if you did the math right on your income tax you wouldn't have to pay that much.

your math stinks , and i am for the progressive tax. Someone making 42 k a year might pay 15% combined FICA and income tax. The guy making 250 k a year would pay around 28% plus or minus combining fica and income taxes. His marginal rate would be in the mid 30's.
