I mean the first chart in your article says the top 40% are paying like 85% of the country's taxes and the top 1% are paying 24% of the taxes.

So I don't really see your angle, seems like rich people are paying a lot of the country's taxes already.
I guess you would need to define what is Rich then? Because I had always thought it was concerning to the nation over the top 1% not paying enough taxes. And from article they aren't compared to the rest of the 99% in the nation.
