You need to get the fact that if you paid much lower taxes then the money would have to be paid by the millions of por peole who can't afford it and that will totally ruin the economy. If you are successful then it's because you live in America not N Korea and it takes a lot of money to run America. If the communist had taken over America would you be suscessful? No. Nothing is free, especially freedom.
Fact is rich people got their tax break 7 years ago. They got the top rate reduced from 39% to 35% for someone making $500K that's a $6400 savings just on the part subject to the 35% tax rate. Why would they bitch about Joe Lunchbucket getting $600? Not to mention they got their capital gains rates cut too.
