But what about the 0.1%? The top 100, 10? Things grow exponentially fast as you reach the top. If you look at the Forbes 100, Jeff Bezos is worth about 2x number 5, 10x number 40. [1] The net worth of the top 1% is 10 million. That's 10,000x less than Jeff Bezos. The percentile/wealth graph is an insane hockey stick. I don't doubt the 1% pay a big chunk of the pie. I do wonder if it's an amount proportional to their wealth, but let's leave the millionaires aside. I wonder what part of that 37% the billionaires are paying, and if _that_ is a fair amount.
