How much do you think someone should pay in federal income tax if they make over $1 million a year? I think 30% is reasonable.
I asked how much is enough, the answer will never come because there is never going to be enough.
30% might be reasonable as a total but just federal? That person will likely be well over 50% after all other taxes are figured, especially if you remove any write-offs/'loophoples'.
