    True. But I assume the top 10% are paying less percentage wise in taxes than the bottom 90% are at present. If that's true than my retort to your rhetorical question about how much more should the super rich be expected to pay would be something like "A lot more.". I don't advocate taking the majority of the super rich's wealth for distribution to the poor, etc. IF the super rich are in fact paying significantly LESS percentage wise in taxes than the remaining 90% than any whining by them or their proponents at the notion of the super rich paying more in taxes get a bunch of these from me . That's all I'm saying.
