Why not go straight to the IRS? Get your "facts" from the people who
actually know and do not have an axe to grind.

And, if a fact is "almost" right then do you consider it a fact?


The bottom 40% pay only 7.7% of the taxes.

And is this a problem? If they receive only 7.7% (or thereabouts) of the
income, then that's ALL THE TAXES THEY *_*_*SHOULD*_*_* PAY....

The bottom 40% earn 10.4% of the income, but pay only 7.7% of the taxes.

The top 40% earn 77.9% of the income, but pay 81.6% of the taxes.


It should be a one-to-one correlation. In other words, if a certain segment
earns 77.9% of the income, they should pay 77.9% of the taxes.
