> It showed that the effective tax rate paid by those Americans jumped in 2013 to nearly 23 percent. As a data point, my family paid 28% average federal tax, on AGI of $355k. We are California residents. Taxes are regressive on the higher incomes, and that doesn't seem right. |

You made the mistake of earning that money by working. I am making the same mistake.
If you factor in sales taxes, property taxes, state income taxes, etc. I'm pretty sure you're giving half of what you earn to the government.
