I said "I think it's somewhere between 10 and 50 percent." Not sure how more
clear I can be.

No idea. I'm not an economist nor do I work for the IRS. I think it's

Bzzzt. Wrong answer. The question didn't call for any economic expertise,
Nor did it call for any knowledge of facts. Since you asserted that
citizens
should pay their "fair share," it called for your individual judgment as
to
what shares would be "fair." That's a matter on which an economist has no
more qualification to pass on than the man in the street.
