According to a Tax Foundation analysis of new IRS data, the bottom half of income-tax filers paid 36% more in taxes in 2011 than they did in 2010 even though their incomes barely budged.The top half, in contrast, saw their tax burden climb only 9%. The average tax rate paid by the bottom half has climbed every year under Obama, going from 2.35% in 2009 to 3.13% in 2011.Viewed another way, the share of "adjusted gross income" earned by the bottom half fell slightly in 2011, but their share of income taxes paid actually rose the first such increase since 1989.Read More At Investor's Business Daily:*You Call This Tax Fairness, Mr. Obama? - Investors.com us:*@IBDinvestors on Twitter*|*InvestorsBusinessDaily on Faceboo

It would behoove you to read the whole thing.
The data also don't include transfer payments. As we've noted, when you include government transfers, the average family in the bottom 40% actually gets money back from the government.

Just like when you dimwits said Bush quit golf after 9/11, you do realize that's a flat out lie too, don't you?
Fact Checker - Golf-gate!
Bush quit golf because his knees gave out.
Then he continued vacationing more than any president in history, even Obama.
