Title: Who Really Pays All the Taxes?
Topic: Taxes: Who Really Pays Their Fair Share

Discussed by Pete Sepp
with National Taxpayers Union (www.ntu.org)

New data shows that the top one percent of income earners bear the burden of thirty-seven percent of all income taxes. This is nearly twice as much as their share of income. Who shares the rest of the tax burden? How many people don’t pay any taxes?

Pete Sepp is the President of the National Taxpayers Union. Listen as he shares the facts…

NOTE: The information in this segment is from the latest numbers available from 2016.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Who are considered “rich taxpayers” (the top five percent)?

Do the top one percent of taxpayers pay a small or huge percent of taxes?

Is there a law that stops the super-rich from paying too much money to the government? Hint: Nope. “In fact, the US Treasury’s Bureau of the Public Debt welcomes contributions from taxpayers who actually want to designate their money to reduce the national debt,” Pete Sepp informs. Listen as he reveals how many people actually do this every year!

What percentage of taxes do the top ten percent earners pay?

What is the TCJA: Tax Cut and Jobs Act? Has it helped or hindered the tax burden?

What percent of the Federal inflow of money comes from the top fifty percent? How much do they pay in taxes?

Does the US have some of the highest tax rates in the world?
