Have a donut hole between $107K and $500K. Above $500K 3% payroll tax
resumes. Rich people are expected to contribute more because they
benefit more. Nobody wants to live among desperate poor people; they
smell bad and run down the property values.

Without cheap immigrant labor (or worse) there'd be no USA as we know it.
