Default Re: Aren\'t taxes just too high?

So everyone in the top bracket is rich? Also what is income really? We've been over this many times on the forum but the problem with an income tax is that the income earner base is very diverse and thus defining income for all income earners is an impossible task and IMO is the breeding ground for special interest groups. If income is just money earned on a W-2 then isn't the standard deduction costing the government tons of money as well? Why have the standard deduction?
