There are a lot more poor people than rich people. Poor people spend much more of their money (usually 100% of it) on the things they want, and they pay the highest percent of taxes.
Rich people spend less of what they have, saving it in the bank, and keeping it out of the economy and paying less taxes. Some place their money offshore f shore, paying less or no taxes again. Rich people with businesses use a variety of methods to pay less or no taxes on expenses related to their businesses.
