Why shouldn't the poor and middle class be able to do the same thing. I have difficulty mustering sympathy for a billionaire that pays 100,000 in taxes when a guy that makes 20,000 to start with has several thousand taken by the government. Percentagewise, the poor guy's paying a lot more, and that's on an income where he can ill afford to even pay an equivalent percentage. A billionaire isn't gonna miss a hundred grand. A thousandaire IS going to miss a couple grand.
