Currently in the US, the top 10% of earners pay 70% of all income tax. This is not enough?
The US is based on equality of opportunity, not equality of results.
What do you do about people who aren't even interested in trying? (I, perhaps, have a more experienced viewpoint that most posting here, having spend most of my formative years in a Barrio. I was constantly surrounded by kids my age who sole goal in life was to get a basic job, play softball, drink beer, and enjoy the opposite sex. School? Why, you didn't need it for a construction job. Years later, having done without for education, hard work for many years, and a modest level of affluence from the above, I'm supposed to share with those who didn't care?)
