But I don't like the idea of a small percent of the population paying for such a large share of government spending. It sorta feels like it would be easy for them to think, well, if I'm paying for it, then I want my say in what the government does to be proportionately greater (greater than the already far too disproportionate greater say that they already have).
They may like to think otherwise, but most wealthy people aren't self-made. Others educated them and built the systems/infrastructure that enabled that wealth to be created and funneled to them. Success is a debt to society that they are disproportionately able to pay.
Don't forget inheritance.
