From today's "Inside the Beltway" column at washtimes.com The average American's per-capita federal tax bill will reach $6,031 in 1998, up 3.6 percent from last year's, the Tax Foundation informs Inside the Beltway. The average federal tax bill for fiscal 1998 will range from a high of $9,469 in Connecticut to a low of $4,030 in Mississippi. Locally, the average bill in the District of Columbia is $7,862; in Maryland, it's $6,737; and in Virginia, $6,076. If you think these are big jumps, in nominal terms, the per-capita federal tax burden is 44 percent higher this year than in 1992, and 65 percent higher that it was in 1988, according to the foundation, which has been making heads and tails of these valuable numbers since 1937. Tax & spend, tax & spend. New Democrat indeed. RS
