“As Vice President Kamala Harris tries to articulate her economic plans, it is clear that she intends to continue to spend more money, and in doing so, also wants to raise taxes, at least for some Americans. Her attempt at an explanation includes one tired refrain, a carry-over from the Biden-Harris agenda: the wealthy aren’t paying their fair share and we need to get them to pay more. … According to Treasury data, federal income taxes account for about half of government revenue. Of those federal income taxes, per the Tax Foundation, about half of taxpayers paid around 98% of that total. … The National Taxpayers Union Foundation’s data from 2021 showed that the top 1% of earners made 26.3% of Adjusted Gross Income (AGI), yet they paid 45.8% of federal income taxes. One percent of the people paying almost 46% of taxes is definitely not fair, but Harris wants more.” (10/02/24)
