That's just bullshit. Nobody thinks or has suggested that.

And Stu's statement is true. Many rich people pay less in overall taxes, as a PERCENTAGE OF INCOME, than we do. Period.

That makes your categorical statement "The rich pay more in federal taxes than you do, Stu" simply false.
Is this true if we look just at the income tax or only if you include the highly regressive FICA tax the Democrats foisted on the American people.
