that's billions of tax payers money with the tax burden being disproportionately heavy for the 90% while the 10% pay less and less taxes the richer they are

I like how on lemmy you see both how much upvotes and downvotes you have, on reddit you could have a score of 1 and don’t know much has happened, but with lemmy you could have 50 upvotes and 49 downvotes, making you really think about it…
-
Not only that, but admins and kbinners can actually view which accounts upvoted and which downvoted each comment.
-
What's a kbinner?
-
A user on kbin
-
-
I thought everyone can see it? Not just admin
-
Everybody can see the number of upvotes and downvotes. But on kbin you can literally see which accounts upvoted and which accounts downvoted.
-
All interesting things, I’m gonna learn more about these things.

False, the bottom 90% paid about 25% of income taxes (in the US at least). https://taxfoundation.org/publications/latest-federal-income-tax-data/
-
it's about the percentage of income paid, not the net sum
-
Ok, so what percentage of income do the various income brackets pay?
-
Why don't you look it up?
-

-
But I think what they mean is that the 90% are more affected by it, because proportional it's a bigger chunk of their income missing.
But I could be wrong
