75% of my 50% effective tax rate goes towards social programs. A good way to think about it would be the fact I would likely be able to start a family with 50% more money.

I also think minimum wage/the current crazy consolidation of corporations has lead to some unique issues. The fact that 100 companies have 90% of the money (making these numbers up) doesn't mean you'll get paid 10x or 100x for the same position at said companies which I think is a problem.
