i dont agree that any special group is being singled out. this is a basic tax structure decision. our current tax schedules would be just as intolerable, even if the rate of increase in tax as income goes up is not as high now. what you seem to be proposing is that the only acceptable, non-discriminatory tax is a flat tax, likely with no exemptions, and i doubt that would treat the wealthy better than this modest adjustment.
i also feel like those making over $5m a year are incredibly fantastically well represented in congress, have for my entire life been given favoritism & benefit, a constant march of tax cuts that they overwhelmingly benefit from, and that there are almost no instances of this group ever having had to make a sizable adjustment. these people are very well represented & that's the problem.
