Wow, you are probably going to take a beating for those statements. Of course there are litterally hundreds of easily accessible websites that will show over & over again that the very top wage earners in the country with extremely high incomes and still unbelievable cash at their fingertips after tax time pay the the bulk of the income tax base.

Take a few minutes and google income tax statistics.

One quick fact, the lower 50% of the income payers in the United States only contribute 3.3% of the total income tax base. I'll let you find the other interesting stats on your own, but I believe it may be a real eye opener for some of those "uninformed taxpayers".
