[Sisyphus]

Why a janitor ends up with a higher tax rate than a millionaire, and seven more charts that show how the richest Americans beat the IRS.

It's misleading to think that the poor pay an unfair percent of the tax burden.

While I favor a progressive tax system it is important that everyone contribute what they can if only to be part of the systerm.

Did you read the article?

I like this one better. It's the Inequality, Stupid

Again it is the wording not the content. I would of prefered the headline to read

Declining tax burden for the rich and cooperations

And

It's the disparity, Stupid

The headlines imply a solution to an injustice is needed while the article does little to support that position in and of it's content.
