The top 50% of wage earners in this nation pay nearly 98% of all income tax in this nation.

“They’re not paying their fair share!”

Snore. The standard demagogic boilerplate. That number is meaningless without the percentage of income the same 50% make. Oh, and the number are 97.1% — but the top 50% make 87.7% of income. Total taxation is barely progressive.
