Cap'n,

The top 1% pay between 40% and 50% of all federal income taxes. A lot of my individual clients make between $300K and $600K per year, and I know for a FACT that they pay WAY more than their fair share in taxes.

The share of overall wealth held by the "top 1%" of Americans is 38.6%, while that held by the "bottom 90%" is 22.8%, which means that the wealthiest 1% of the US population is now 70% richer than the bottom 90%.
