At least 90 Percent of Americans Have a Lower Income Tax Rate than Romney
By: William McBride
Scott Hodge mentioned something earlier today that might seem hard to believe, especially for readers of the Washington Post: “about 96 percent of all taxpayers have a lower average tax rate than Romney”. More precisely, in 2010, somewhere between 90 and 95 percent of Americans had a lower effective income tax rate than Romney’s 13.9 percent. In 2011, somewhere between 95 and 97 percent of Americans had a lower effective income tax rate than Romney’s 15.4 percent, at least according to the latest IRS data from 2010.
