I'm with Bernie on this one, It's time to make America great again and way past due that everyone start paying their fair share of the taxes. 45% pay not one dime in income taxes, it's time they shared the burden.
Americans earning six figures or more paid 79.5 percent of the nation’s share in individual income taxes in 2014, according to the latest preliminary data from the Internal Revenue Service.
Americans paid a total of $1,358,093,169,000 to the IRS in individual income taxes in 2014. Americans earning $100,000 or more paid $1,079,392,180,000 to the IRS, or 79.5 percent of the total income tax paid.
