Well then any one who feels they aren't taxed enough can kindly send the other 40% of their income to the government.
The top rate is still over 30%.

I agree life's not fair, but the claim, one pays 50% and another 0, is not fair, and the one paying 50% should pay 80% is? That's a move in the wrong direction.

To suggest that someone making $500k, should pay $450k intaxes, to "be fair", is socilisim. I guess you also want to give those earning only $25k, a check $25k too.It's been tried many time and failed every time. It contridicts to human behavior. It'll never work.

The government is too big. It needs to be scaled back. The they won't need to collect as much. But no politician is going to do it. Not Bush, not Kerry, not even Nader. They only chance is term limits, so "professional" politicians go away. Once you're not worried about relection, you can start to do what's best for the country, state, district, instead of giving handouts so you get re-elected.
