My earlier point was that the money wasn’t spent, it was hoarded.
I’m good with who pays how much but if you want that to mean something you also need to tell me how much they made (income, not unrealized gains). If 65% of net income before taxes paid 75% of the taxes then great. If 50% of net income before taxes paid 65% of taxes then I have no complaint at all. But if 95% of net income before taxes paid 65% of taxes then quit the dang whining!
The statistics are based on facts but both the facts and the statistics are incomplete.
Then there are always the “three kinds of lies: lies, damn lies, and statistics.”
