You are mixmixing and matching tax rates,rates; you can not perform any valid comparisons that way.
YouYour total tax burden is the sum of federal income tax, FICA taxes, state taxes, and local taxes. Since we only have Sander'sSanders' federal tax rate, we can only compare your federal tax rate against his, which is not 49% since, as you stated, that is the value for everything.
Also make sure that you are calculating your effective federal tax rate for the comparison and not using your marginal rate. The media and politicians like to play loose and compare the two directly as it makes for better outrage. Remember that it is only the income in each bracket that is taxed at the higher rate.
