Statistics for tax year 2007 have just been released.
The numbers show that the bottom 50% of all
income-earners paid only 2.9% of all taxes paid.
That begs the question: How much further
can you actually reduce a mere 2.9%?
The top 5% (no, not 50% -- just 5%!) of all income
earners paid-in 60.6% of all taxes.
That begs the question: Just how much more
can we "soak the rich" without totally taking away
any incentive to get rich?
