sure, % collected from the rich are at an all time high, but its not because "were soaking the rich" its because the rich are making crazy amounts of money. Tax rates are at 35%. They used to be much much higher...like 70-80%..but now it's 35% and they have the lion share of taxes. Why is that? Because wages for the average american have stagnated, but the top earners have seen much growth.
