Original Note:
This is mostly, but not entirely, true if only direct taxes are considered. It is false if you consider indirect taxes, such as taxes on energy, that are passed through to individuals regardless of income. And inflation that harms mostly lower incomes. https://www.taxpolicycenter.org/taxvox/bidens-budget-would-raise-taxes-high-income-households-cut-them-many-others https://budget.house.gov/press-release/biden-plan-means-higher-gas-prices-new-62-billion-tax-on-american-energy-producers/
