You sound bitter. If you make more, you should pay more. That is how it works. I don't know what you make but I do know that by coincidence, those who are in higher income categories are also the ones who can work from home and not take any hit at all on income. The stimulus money is actually meant to help all those who are sitting at home with no income. Sitting at home while you earn money working from your computer is not called roughing it.
Interesting perspective. My wife does pretty well with her jewelry store. She has a lot of face-to-face time with her customers designing custom engagement rings, etc.

And yet now her store is shut down by edict, and she has zero income potential.

Oh yeah, she can apply for the SBA PPP loan, but that will (at best) cover wages for her employees and rent. Her margin is down to zero.

Perhaps your absolute assumption about all people in the higher bracket can work from home and keep their income is too inclusive?
