It'll be an icy day in Hades when I earn enough to pay significant amounts of taxes. Not that I don't pay a significant portion of my income, because I do - between federal and state income taxes, medicare/medicaid, social security, property taxes, ad valorem taxes, and sales taxes, I pay about 46% of my income to taxes. That's still an insignificant amount in the larger picture. I know wealthy people who pay more for a single meal than I pay in taxes.
