Under the current tax code you me and pretty much everyone except the 1% 'ers bare the full burden of the tax brackets.
10% $0 $0 $0
12% $9,700 $19,400 $13,850
22% $39,475 $78,950 $52,850
24% $84,200 $168,400 $84,200
32% $160,725 $321,450 $160,700
35% $204,100 $408,200 $204,100
37% $510,300 $612,350 $510,300
But what happens after 612,350? That's just it! It a break for the super rich.
Lets face it, we drive mustangs not mclarens, but if we had a tax system that didn't cap out like this, and linearly increased the % of tax owed as a function of the the income doubling, then heath care would be paid from by this 0.5% group alone.
The creative spirit is dying for most of us and I think we're too focused on having a job and not looking at the bigger picture. Are we happy? Are we doing what we love? Do we have opportunities in this country to follow our dreams? Something as simple as a heath care system would allow people to take that chance, but cooperate American, that pays for many politicians, would rather have us in the rat race and tell you "jobs jobs jobs." Trump being no exception here.
What do people think about this tax system?
