We dont have a progressive tax. We have a regressive tax. In fact mitt romney pays less of his income taxes than a truck driver making 50k a year and lives by himself. We have have corporations like GE that not only not pay any taxes but get money back from the govt.
We have a progressive tax system for many, and a regressive tax system for others. While I don't feel like looking up the exact numbers right now (I might if you really want me to) plenty of well off and "rich" individuals and families pay their full tax percentage, or just about.
