I think this sentiment is what causes me to cringe when I hear the chants of "tax the rich". The vast majority of the rich are following the rules and they have advisors to help them pay as little as tax as possible. There is a large segment of the population who are not even following the rules now, like those involved in the underground economy, so who is really not "paying their fair share"?
