Let me see if I can (properly ) summarize your points.

The poor don't pay enough (or any) taxes and should, to be fair and contribute to the well being of this nation pay something. I agree

The rich, being in such small numbers (relative to the vast middle class or commonly now known as the "99%ers") would not materially add to the problem of deficit reduction by the small marginal wealth that paying more tax would provide. (again agree) And as, "job creators they should continue to enjoy lower taxes to help stimulate and I guess, motivate, their effects on job creation. (strongly disagree).

So the poor should pay more, and the rich....well it doesn't matter.
