Tommy go look it up on the IRS homepage or something. The Rich pay almost ALL the taxes.

Top 10% of income earning families pay 50% of all taxes in this country.

Top 3% pay 28% of all taxes in this counrty

The math doesn't work out.

Top 10 pay 50%
upper class pays 30%
upper middle 15%
middle pays 4%
Everybody else about 1%

I think that's how it goes. Let me look it up. But basically the lower classes don't pay ANY federal income tax. Which is how the government get's most of its money.
