Good Morning PuplCutter,

Everyone's life stye is different from one another, the quality of your purchases, such as furnishings, cars, food, toys, differ, State taxes differ, deductions differ, investments, property taxes ... etc.

All information and online articles point to the Federal Income tax as the model to use for calculating tax payments by the U.S Citizens and all the articles I've read point out that the top-end pays the most.

I can only go by the information that's available using Federal income Tax as the model.
usgovinfo.about.com

Depending on the state you live in and your lifestyle, ... this could vary, some of the information below supports your view at the state level, as each state differs from one another, but everyone agrees that at the Federal level, the top end pays more.

I am not claiming that, ... We only pay Fed-Tax, common knowledge agrees that we pay too much in taxes period, regardless of anyone's tax bracket and who pays what. In my prior post, I acknowledge that we are paying way to many taxes.

My bet is that the Middle Class payout the most when you combine every single tax that's payed by the people of this country, I have no way of knowing this, everyone leads a somewhat different lifestyle and all states vary in tax rates.

I am not, nor have, ... disputed your claim to the numbers you offer, I am simply saying that we have too many people not paying enough at the lower end do to the fact that they are not working or not working enough, as in part-time, many are what I call THE TAKERS, ones that dont work at all but receive government aid, below is my point, which is hurting this country and keeping it from prospering further.

<"The problem here is that, ... so many people are below the taxable rate, or at the very low end of it, ... or are not working at all,">

The above statement adds a burden to our debt, ... and adds hardship on our society.
