Where are some credible souces to back up any of that innuendo you keep
attempting to push?

Truth is, sure looks like the wealthiest 1% are not paying 42% of all of
governments costs, and sure looks like the top 19% are not paying half
of governments costs, until that happens they are NOT paying their fair
share ... a flat tax can fix that ...

I already said the tax data is at irs.gov

Now, as for a flat tax I agree with you 100%. The one I advocate is
the FairTax.

Let me put this more bluntly. If I buy and item and pay 7% sales tax,
the top one percent should buy an item and pay a 42.7% sales tax, that
way they will be contributing their fair share to run government ...

You set up a system which handles it ... where they pay their fair share
of the cost of government.

Besides the inherent unfairness of such a system what would you
suggest for implementation? I can see it now:

Customer: Good day, one cup of coffee please.
Waiter: Sure...first a copy of your 1040 please.

Remember Desert One, Carter 0? Ain't it sad to wish that Obama had as much
ambition but being glad he doesn't knowing he doesn't have THAT much
competence?

First of all, the data on that site is not effective in being able to
reach any proper conclusions ... it has been conveniently arranged that way.

Even a professional accountant would need a great amount of time to be
able to apply the data effectively, and then only with the data from
other sources ...

Sure it is. It gives a clear, concise and true picture of who pays
the federal income tax burden in this country. If you want to talk
about all taxes and all revenue that goes to the government then your
right. I know of no place that compiles that data.
