In 1980, the top 1% of earners in the U.S. paid 19.05% of federal income tax, while the bottom 50% paid 7.05%. In 2007, the top 1% had seen their share of federal income tax increase to 40.42%, while the bottom 50% paid only 2.89%.

If anyone should be complaining about losing out, shouldn't it be the rich?
