Now that was a great post, elmat!

Would you be surprised to know that in the US, the tax structure is even more unfair (to the wealthy) than in Denmark?

In 2001, the top 10% of US taxpayers (i.e. the 10th guy at the table in your story) paid 64.9% of the government lunch check.

Also, the bottom 29.5% pay zero taxes and many of them actually get paid to eat by Uncle Sam.
