If you think of x% of your income going to the feds, and y% of your income going to the state, you should pay (x+y)%. Not x% + (1-x) * y%. That being said, politicians like taxing the rich. The rest of the people don't complain as much and they only lose donations/votes of the rich... a much smaller percentage. Like many other things, nobody had the foresight to account for inflation.

I am fully frustrated by the AMT. It bothers me that we could be affected by it this year (it people that make between 75-150k fall in that range). I hope they do something about it soon. Also, I would love a simple scale to tell me if we qualify. Like, you make over X amount you qualify for AMT, under you don't. It seems like there are too many variables. It REALLY bothers me that it's no longer just a tax on the rich. The govt needs to fix this quick. Yes! I am fully frustrated by the AMT.
