France was basically bankrupt. King Louis XVI gave millions of dollars to the Americans in their fight for independence from England. Marie Antoinette spent money lavishly every day. King Louis XVI tried raising taxes on the Third Estate of France (the commoners )which was 97% of the population. The Third Estate revolted, broke away from the Estates General (the French legislature) and formed its own legislature, the National Assembly. After the storming of the Bastille, the National Assembly took control of the government and dramatically changed the tax structure of France.

No, he was the king, above all estates.
King Louis was bound to the Ancient Regime which had three Estates within the Estates General. The First Estate was the Catholic Clergy, the Second Estate was the Nobles and the Third Estate was everyone else.

Louis XVI was not a good leader and felt it was better not to lose the favor of the two smaller Estates. He denied a request by the Third Estate to have the votes counted by the head rather than the estate. As a result, the Third Estate saw they could not reason with the king and this opened the path to revolution.
The First Estate was the clergy, about 1% of the population. The Second Estate was the nobility, about 2% of the population. The Third Estate was everyone else, about 97% of the population. King Louis XIV, King Louis XVI, and Marie Antoinette drained the French Treasury. The French gave too much financial aid to the American Colonists in their fight for independence from England. King Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette spent lavishly, thinking the Third Estate would foot the bill by paying higher taxes.
Since they started the revolution because of the unfair taxes and unfair social heirarchy, they wanted all of that changed. They didn't like the heirarchy and the fact that they were on the bottom of it and had to work harder to support the first and second estate. They also had to pay higher taxes, and since they were poor to begin with, they didn't end up with much. Which is why they revolted.
