Asking a Democrat who is "the rich" or what is their "fair share" is like asking a computer to calculate the full value of pi.

But I think this prevents articles like this from serving as proper "gotchas". "Fair share" isn't an objective value, so you can't really prove or disprove whether or not "the rich" are paying it.

What is funny is Democrats say they want out taxes more like Europe. That would be mean the rich would pay less.

The narrative I hear is less that they want taxes to be more like Europe, and more that they want our taxes to pay for all of our healthcare. Not quite the same thing.
