I'm fine with it at 35–40%.

However, someone making $100,000,000 pays $79,838,000 in taxes (79.8%). The tax rate gets ever higher.

Indirect tax on the poor. No free person should EVER pay more then 45% of their income in taxes.

One of the few things I think we'll ever agree on.  Though I say no more than 50%.

It seems fundamentally unfair for you not have the majority share of benefit from your work.
