<<If it is, prove it.>> I've already proved it. But here's some proof maybe even you'll find worthwhile. From the IRS: irs.gov This is a spreadsheet showing how much revenue came in, by type and how much there is after refunds are paid. Guess what, after refunds, personal income tax accounts for 46% of total federal revenue. Employment tax accounts for 42% of total federal revenue. That's right they're almost equal. The Employment tax which you and Fox News lie isn't a federal tax, raises almost as much federal revenue as the Income tax. All those millions of working Americans that you and Fox slander by saying they pay no federal taxes, they're financing about as much of the federal government as any other federal tax is.
