No, I don't think it was that high. Do you still have that link to the IRS report?

You guys have sold me all those poor people aren't paying there fair share. Since everyone who earns less than 50k a year gets a free ride (according to the chart below) we should find a way to have them pay off all the free stuff they are getting like (police, use of roads, education, cheap food, fire department, etc.)

This is the tax chart.
