The bottom 50% of Americans don’t pay taxes at all. Thus, 95% of Americans CAN NOT pay taxes.

I think the poster meant that the percentage of Americans who actually owe Federal income tax, after exemptions etc., is rather less than 95%.

What he means is “It is not the case that 95% of Americans pay income tax.”
