Here is one you can verify.

"This is the latest data for calendar year 2003 just released in October 2005 by the Internal Revenue Service. The share of total income taxes paid by the top 1% of wage earners rose to 34.27% from 33.71% in 2002. Their income share (not just wages) rose from 16.12% to 16.77%. However, their average tax rate actually dropped from 27.25% down to 24.31%. The Top 50% pay 96.54% of All Income Taxes"

So, there you have it. Half the people pay almost ALL the income taxes.

I'm still waiting for a complete independent audit of all government money spent.
