Ask any budget expert in Washington to explain the ballooning deficit and debt, and Social Security and Medicare will be high on the list of causes. That’s wrong. The real driver, the elephant in the room, is means-tested social-welfare spending—Medicaid, food stamps, refundable tax credits, Supplemental Security Income, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, federal housing subsidies and almost 100 other programs whose eligibility is limited to those below an income threshold.

In many cases such as Amazon, they are paying nothing. We should go back to our schedules in the 20s and 30s. Wealthy people paid more and they were taxed at a much higher rate. Businesses flourished. Wage disparity wasn't out of whack.We do tax them comrade.
