Chances are if you are rich in the eyes of the US gov't, you are rich in the eyes of almost everyone but yourself and your peers. You may not feel rich but if you marginal tax rate is 33%, you are in fact rich compared to the nation, and the rest of the world.

But taxes do suck. I actually made a little bit less (about 4%) and paid a lot less this year (about 10%) in federal income taxes. Some of that was eaten up by the medicare surcharge though.
