Let me put it this way, so you can understand. Let's say there are two people one is making 100k and another is making 10k the first one is paying 20k in taxes and the second on is paying 5k in taxes, according to your logic the first guy is overburdened with taxes cause he is paying 20k and the other is only paying 5k (first guy is paying 80% of taxes, right?). This system would be great if you are the top earner, side benefit of this is you get to bitch that you are paying too much taxes? Is this what is fair and should be supported? If you want to present numbers then show me what is the per cent of the economic output they take in and how much of that they pay in taxes.
