National Taxpayers Union - Who Pays Income Taxes?

Interesting data from 2009. Hoping to find 2010's.

It seems if you are part of the EVIL top 25% income earners, you can be there on as little as about $66k per year and you are paying over 87% of the taxes.

So much for the evil rich people theory.

Facts are a liberals worst nightmare.

Lies from right wingers.

What liberal has EVER MENTIONED the top 25% tax bracket as needing more taxes?

OP puts that in himself so he can take away from what they are really talking about ...the top 2%.

FACT CHECK.ORG

For simplicity, we’ll just focus on the over-$250,000 group. Those reporting adjusted gross income of more than $250,000 to the IRS are projected to make up 2 percent of households next year, when the new president will take office.

How Much Money Do The Top Income Earners Make By Percentage? | Financial Samurai

Here are the 2010 numbers.

Interesting that the super evil top 1% pay the highest effective tax rate, completely demolishing the liberal lies.

What happened OP?....I know you are furiously Googling trying to tie a liberal to saying those that earn $66K are EVIL and should be taxed more.

How much time do you need?.........And you bragged how factual you are......LOL

It doesn't matter how much you make. Tax everybody the same. Simple stuff until the folks with their hands out show up and want to take from others.

When people say the top 1%, it has NOTHING to do with annual income. It is overall wealth. Some people on the top 1% don't even have an annual income, but they have hoards upon hoards of money and are able to throw Millions at campaigns and causes without feeling any effects of it. These are the people that are controlling our government, not some Doctor making $150,000/Year.

1% of the American population controls nearly 50% of the wealth.
