Gregggreen29, 

Can we focus on the top .1% those earning more than 3.9 million.  You agreed that wage growth has gone to the top quarter (it's much closer to the top 5%) so why do you think these individuals don't pay enough.  When a secretary earning 40-45K pays a higher effective tax rate than the boss earning 10-25x more something is wrong.  

Is it better to take more from someone who works and earns >100K  or better to take more from someone who earns <25K?  If you can barely afford rent and food I don't see the point in taxing those individuals more.  To continue, if the higher earner pays 35K a year in federal taxes and the lower earning pays 2K in federal taxes is this unfair (this does not include the state and municipal taxes either of them may pay)?
