48% tax on high income earners is fair

Q: The top 10% pays almost 70% of the federal income tax bill. How much out of every dollar should the highest tax individuals be able to keep?

A: Well, I think we should have a fair tax. I think that all of this stuff is a big dialog that we need to have. I know that I pay 48% of my income to taxes. You know, I wouldn't mind so much if it wasn't going just to export war. If it was actually going to help the people of the United States, I would gladly pay more.
