that's why the taxfoundation is often cited by most people doing tax research....

Some examples please of 'some of these - 'MOST' people?

No. I didn't bother reading the article as the opening sentence is a lie.

We exchanged posts on this topic.
The disparity of wealth is well documented.

Of course that same documentation is a comparison of population and tax............

The Tax Foundation recognizes that taxes have been reduced.
And it's well documented that the wealthiest have a larger percentage of Federal Revenue.
The other 99% are contributing less to the Fed Revenue because they are profiting less.

The Tax Foundation has drawn unsustainable conclusions on income!
They've made the mistake of taxes/income without population migration.
Instead they offer 'quintiles' which voids population numbers.


Richard Morrison, the author of your post, is the head of "TaxExemptWorld" http://www.taxexemptworld.com/
He's also the head of communications for the Tax Foundation.
He's not a journalist.
He's not an economist.
