The top 1% pay 24% of ALL federal taxes, and 35% of just federal income tax. The top 10% pay 53.3% of ALL federal taxes, and 68% of just federal income tax. Do you REALLY want more corporations and the rich moving their businesses and funds OUT of the country? This silly ploy used by the left of jealousy and seeing theft as a legitimate means of income redistribution will never work, nor solve the problem. Pretty soon, it'll be 100%, then 110% then 150%!! You would think one would wonder how the US survived prior to 1913 with NO income tax! The way it survived is, we didn't have progressives attempting to destroy the country so they could create their "utopia". (With themselves as the elite in charge, of course). How about we have EVERYONE pay income taxes, even those whose source of income is government handouts!  No deductions, no "credits" just a flat percentage of your "income".  Or, if you don't pay taxes, you give up your privilege (it's not a right) of voting!
