No they don’t. Even if a “poor person” wanted to, they have nowhere near the scope available to “arrange their affairs” such that they can minimise their taxes at the same percentage (of income) as the rich do. To believe otherwise is naive in the extreme.

I think OP was referring to the act of arranging one's affairs to make their taxes as low as possible, and not the ultimate reduction in tax rate achieved.
