95% of new wealth goes to the richest, and we have the worst rich/poor gap and upward mobility in the history of our country. Also per cent homeless and in prison, highest college costs and infrastructure going to hell. Great job, Pubbies.
Our tax system is basically a flat tax, and if you count government fees, the poorest are closer to the rich in % paid. We're all going to hell for the sake of your megarich brainwashers...
Wow. I can't believe how dense you loony leftist whiners are. YOUR OWN SOURCE says you are a liar. This is from the article you linked:
The bottom 40% of American earners face an avg of 19% in total tax burden while the top 60% pay 29% of their earnings in taxes.
Those earning $30,000/yr pay $5,800.
Those earning $200,000/yr pay $58,000.
Does that really seem like a "flat tax" to you?
