They pay a higher tax rate as a group but they get more deductions bringing that tax rate down lower than what the average middle class person pays. Oh and they make it sound odd that someone whom makes a million dollars a year pays a larger share than someone making 50k year.
The article is stupid, because it try to skew the facts for headlines. The simplest way to fix these issues is to have a straight flat tax but you damn sure know anyone making a lot of money will never want that because they know they wouldn't get those deductions.
Que that moron that shits quarters out his ass.
