If the small obligation I have is to pay back a big chunk of it

and are bitter and angry about putting back in.

Small? The AMT rate is about 25% for federal married. Add in 10% for
state income tax. Plus figure the overage house costs about $7000/yr
in property taxes, plus airplane property taxes, and we haven't even
paid sales tax. A $300,000 airplane costs $24,000 in sales/use tax.
There is no doubt that many of us spent more than 50% of our income on
taxes one way or another.
