I should have said the stat I quoted show the top 10% paying only a slight majority.

To: Your Nightmare
I never said the top 10% pay a majority of all taxes. If you go back, I quoted another poster you were responding to and added, "I will make one change to the above post. Lets limit it to income taxes."

So I clearly limited my comments to income taxes and what is paid by who.

But as you have shown, the top 10% do pay a majority when expanded to include all taxes. So both the original poster and I were right, you were wrong, but eventually did come around to showing and agreeing that yes, the top 10% pay a majority of the taxes.
