But also, the wealthy *should* have to pay more in raw tax dollars, as they gain disproportionately from the stability, infrastructure, and economic environment those taxes sustain. Their ability to generate wealth is deeply intertwined with publicly funded systems. 

Companies like Amazon would not be where they are today without publicly funded infrastructure, a workforce who was educated in public schools, social programs supporting their employees whom they pay below a living wage, etc. 

They have exploited the system for personal gain, and they should pay. Trickle down economics is a fallacy.
