Rather than blaming The Rich, your energies would be better spent understanding the negative impact this unchecked government consumption has had upon working and middle class Americans.
The Rich in any era, will have the resources to protect themselves from government, except in extreme violent revolutions - one of the reasons it is Good To Be Rich.

OK, so let's scale the governement back...we still have declining wages and wealth concentration. Our economic policies have been to the advantage of the wealthiest 1% of this society. Middle class tax cuts do not change that fact.
