Do you have any source or proof that the wealthy pay a disproportionate amount of taxes compared to the rest of us?

Percentages and dollar amounts don't matter. A low income person paying taxes hinders their ability to buy food and housing and clothing. A billionaire paying taxes means they have 6 megayachts instead of 7. It's apples and oranges.

It is unethical to allow billionaires to thrive while people die from poverty.
