thats roundabout 45% but yeah. Actually high earners pay less taxes than those stuck in the middle (like 40k to 60k) because after a certain threshold (i think around 60k) your contributions to health care (which is until then around 15% of your income) don't rise anymore (unless you have a very expensive private health care plan but thats on you ;)).
