I want to let you in on a little secret that few people seem to be able to understand ... Regardless of how "Progressive" your tax system is, the people who don't have the ability to pass their increased costs along to someone else (the "Poor" and "Middle Class") pay all of the taxes. Now, you may not directly be paying these taxes but when you don't get a good pay increase (and everything you buy has gone up in price) in order for the wealthy decision makers to have more money to pay their taxes and maintain their standard of living you're not better off; and you have paid their taxes for them.
