My federal income tax percentage is still higher than Mitt Romney's. Great job capitulating on the fiscal cliff, you stupid Democrats.
I would conclude mine is as well. I haven't finished all the details, but I had to do enough to fill out FAFSA for two kids this year. The impact of my wife taking on extra contract work to pay for the college generates a lot of tax. Right now it looks like I'll pay just under 17% of my adjusted gross income as tax. Almost a quarter of that is self-employment tax.
SE taxes are a highly regressive bitch aren't they?
But the sad thing is even if you ignore the payroll taxes, which Romney doesn't even pay, and I have plenty that I or my employer pay, I paid a higher percentage of just federal income taxes than Romney.
