The rich are already in a higher income tax bracket than lower wage workers, and they already pay zillions more in taxes than middle income earners. 45% of the working class in this country pay no federal income taxes. A family could be making 50 to 75K a year and have a couple of kids and with mortgage interest deduction end up paying no federal taxes.
Don't forget about people like me that made millions last year and paid zero in federal tax to afford bi-coastal homes and private jets. But damn those people that have deductions that afford them to buy such unnecessary items as....FOOD. Damn those people with kids and mortgage interest.
