It would have to be about 17% at current spending levels. 10% won’t generate enough revenue.

Then the spending levels must be cut.

It would on the corporate taxes. Many large corporations pay very little fed tax.

You have it backwards. If the revenue is not "enough", then cut spending. Eliminate the entire welfare state, and 10% will be plenty to finance the government's legitimate functions as laid out in the Constitution.

That's their problem. They should have to live on the income they have, like the rest of us. Cut out the waste and fraud.

You mean the spending levels that added 7.5 trillion to the deficit?
