Those are the numbers reported by the IRS. Not by the news media, not by journalists, but the raw data from the IRS. ...and I never said anything about corporations but that was a nice try.

Long story short. They do pay their "fair share" but that's not enough in your mind. You think that you should tax the shit out of the rich to pay for the poor.


EDIT:

Like I said, look at the numbers for the individuals that was posted (verify if you would like) and then please define what you mean by "fair share". Of course I don't expect you to. I'm expecting that instead you will change the subject again to corporations or something else.
