    (AP) WASHINGTON - As the income gap between rich and poor widens, a majority of Americans say the growing divide is bad for the country and believe that wealthy people are paying too little in taxes, according to a new survey.

    I liked this article because it shows how if everyone payed the same tax rate increase it would add up to a much larger amount then if we just put the higher tax on the 2 percent of the higher income indivuals. It also shows how much the "rich" pay into taxes and how little much of the mid class pay at all. It was very informational.
