yup... but the poor are taxed proportionally higher

Geez but why would the poor be tax higher than the rich instead of the other way around ? what's the reason behind this ?

The reason is capitalism :)

The rich have all the power so they make the rules to ensure they remain on top. It's not fair, but it's just how it is

Hmmm probably the same applies in my country too, the poor have to suffer for everything while the rich stays on top. Guess life is just life
