Let's say we both go to dinner. The bill comes. It's $100. You have $20 in your wallet. I have $200. You pay $10. I pay the other $90. You paid 50% of your "wealth". I paid 45% of my "wealth".
Who paid more?
By your "logic" you paid more. Even though I paid 9X more.
you're comparing a dinner tab to taxes? come on, man. other people in this thread have actually contributed to a rational discussion...
