"2,000,000 AGI and paid an average 22.7%"

wow over 400,000 in taxes. That's way too much, much more than the services they get. These people need a major league tax cut

Do the calculations, Einstein. Taxable income over about $380k is taxed at the top rate.

>>>And you know a lot of people who pay the top rate?? If you know even one, that would be incredible...

What a rIdiculous remark. I have known hundreds who routinely pay the top,rate, even outside of my tax practice (admittedly biased, since a CPAs clients tend toward person's who earn a lot of money).
