Thanks Mark! 
 
Ratest Analyst: 
Actually, if you look at the cut as a proportion of tax paid it looks better. 
 
Someone on $200k pays 9.6% less as a proportion of their tax, while someone on $50k pays 10.9% less as a proportion of their tax. 
 
However, I must stress that the definition for a 'fair' tax cut is one where the proportion of the tax cut is compared to income, not total tax paid.
