I guess it depends on your definition of ultra wealthy but the top 1% made about 21% of earnings and paid over 38% of income taxes in 2017. They actually paid more than the bottom 90%.
... because the top 0.1% made more than the bottom 90%, so seeing the top 1% paying more in taxes than the bottom 90% is actually NOT impressive. That is like saying the top 1% spend less on food and housing so what is wrong with these bottom 90% and why don't they do their part to pick up the economy by spending more money that they do not have on food and housing.
