That means the rich guy made 81 times what the poor guy made. However he only paid 12 times as much in Federal income tax.

Are we supposed to subsidize the 25% that do not work because they can get just as much from the government for doing nothing?
Why do you say rich guy only paid 12 times as much in Federal when the poor guy pays nothing but gets paid?
