Those of you saying you want the rich to pay their "fair share" of taxes, don't really mean that. The top 1% earns 17% of US total income and pays 46% of total income taxes. The top 20% earns 51% of total US income and pays 84% of total income taxes. If we really had the rich pay their "fair share" it would mean a huge tax break for them and huge tax increases for lower earners.

Nothing the government gives you is free.
