The tax burden falls on far too few. Those that are paying taxes are paying far more than they should for government services received. This single-minded focus on the "1%" is tampering with our entrepreneurial motives and is killing American jobs.
Instead, we need to provide incentives to take risk. Capping the maximum federal tax rate (including SS, FICA & medicare) at 30% would take the financial focus off the few that can make a difference and develop future executives. In the end, more jobs will be created, the wealth is "spread around" and the general welfare is assured.
