It is their right to pay as little taxes as possible. Where do you get off expecting someone else to pay more taxes than the law stipulates. Even the Supreme Court said that you should not pay more taxes than the law requires.
The rich does not "steal" from you. You are an idiot that listens to socialist propaganda.
Corporations pay very little taxes? You are kidding right? You do realize that lower oil prices are hitting tax revenues really bad right now, right? States are getting hard because of their lack of tax revenues from the oil industry. The oil industry pays billions of dollars in tax revenues.
The top 20% of earners pay almost 85% of income tax revenues.
About 30% of tax filers get money back that they never contributed, due to EITC.
So, over 50% do not pay income federal income taxes.
And I do not blame any particular party. Although, Bush is responsible for the Earned Income Credit and tax breaks, and has been the cause of more Obama voters.

OK Mr ignorant...
Real estate and saving is where my retirement came from. The ONLY input from corporations/banks was the bank "made up money to lend me"...and then charged me interest.
The corporations own the government which sets the tax rates/laws. It is done in their favor. They also pass laws that takes MORE than our fair share. If you added up ALL the taxes you pay, you'd be astounded, probably half of everything you spend is tax. For a steak at a restaurant...taxes paid by the farmer on his land/equipment, a tax on the steer, tax on the food, medicines the steer took/ate, tax on the grain he ate, tax on the diesel for the tractors, taxes paid on the tractor, taxes paid to the shipper, the fuel used, taxes paid by the slaughter house, taxes paid to the wholesaler, taxes paid to the restaurant, the cook, waitress...get it?
Taxes skim from you to someone connected with government.
