Mot in my tax bracket. Between state and feds and all the other taxes, close to 60% is taken in taxes - while some my fellow Americans pay zero.

The figure I gave of the portion of National income that goes for federal taxes is almost a constant. Programs come and go, needs rise and fall but that figure marches on.

If you are paying more than 40% for all actual taxes you need to rethink things.

The 50% which pays no federal income taxes is now in control of the government.
