Someone with a decent salary, but not rich, is probably paying 50% in taxes total if they live in NYC.

False. On the top dollar, if below but close to the social security wage base of 106,800:

25% federal
6.85% state
3.5% NYC
7.65% FICA

If well above the social security wage base:

33% federal
6.85% state
3.5% NYC
1.45% Medicare

And that's on the top dollar. The average is considerably lower.
