By the same token, you lose credibility when you suggest that the rich do not pay more taxes when they do under any percentage scheme I have ever heard of. I mean and with respect, you seem to think that all rich people should pay over 50% of their income, all estates should be taxed at 95%, etc. That is just punitive No one should ever have to pay more than 20% of their income to anyone.
