meaning, instead of the super wealthy giving 30%+ to taxes, they are around 10%, sometimes less. Therefore, the rich keep getting richer while the rest of the country continues to find ways to avoiding paying more taxes and making some extra money on the side.
That means in order for states to generate revenue, they need to tax businesses and the general people more... hence, more taxes and fees a business has to pay, the less amount of money it has to hire new employees

Incorrect on many levels.
1. The top 1% are NOT "super wealthy"
2. The "rich" who earn pay way more than you. 30% is pretty common.
3. Most of our rich came from the middle class. Pretending they were born into the rich class is incorrect. YOU could have been Bill Gates except that you weren't smart enough, not because you weren't rich enough
