The wealthy always gain wealth faster than everyone else. It's one of the by-products of having a lot of excess cash to invest. Are you just figuring this out? The top 1% also pay 38% of the taxes while making about 20% of the income. The top 5% make 35% of the income and pay 59% of the taxes. So, wealthy people are already paying well above their "fair share". What we need to do is make more people welathy, not make wealthy people poorer.
yet not one conservative "thinker" has ever come out with a tax plan that would help make more people wealthy. I wonder why? Every conservative plan just helps their masters continue to gain while the gap between the haves and the have nots increases.
