Correction. That should read

The top 1% is paying more than ten times the federal income taxes than the bottom 1% BUT my guess is they are earning more than 1000 times as much

Yes, 1% of $1,000 = $10

1% of $1 = 1 cent

And your point is?

Now since each and every citizen of America is only allowed to cast one vote on election day...

And since every single citizen is represented equally by our elected officials.

And since every single citizen should recieve an equal share of the services provided by our government.

Care to explain to me why only 50% of the citizens are paying for our goverment?
