61% + 49% = 110%. And no, your own article pointed out that this was an exceptional year. Hmm, I wonder whyhttps://www.cnbc.com/2021/08/18/61p...ome-taxes-in-2020-tax-policy-center-says.html
If 61% of the people in the US didn't pay federal taxes, ergo the top 49% paid all the taxes, should we be saying instead "we need to raise the taxes on the lower income brackets?"
(It usually is around 47% - which is still quite substantial)
Or are you saying "Only the top tier should pay all the taxes?"
OR
Should we actually be saying "THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD STOP SPENDING MORE MONEY UNTIL THE TAXES CATCHES UP TO THE EXPENESES"
