The United States is, in fact, much more like Mexico than Scandinavia

percent; it's 3.4 percent in Norway, and 4.2 percent in Sweden. In
Mexico
and the United States, however, the rates are 27.7 percent and 21.9
percent,
respectively.

The CBO study, due to be released today (August 12, 2004), found that
the
wealthiest 20 percent, whose incomes averaged $182,700 in 2001, saw
their
share of federal taxes drop from 64.4 percent of total tax payments
in 2001
to 63.5 percent this year. The top 1 percent, earning $1.1 million,
saw
their share fall to 20.1 percent of the total, from 22.2 percent.
Over that same period, taxpayers with incomes from around $51,500 to
around
$75,600 saw their share of federal tax payments increase. Households
earning
around $75,600 saw their tax burden jump the most, from 18.7 percent
of all
taxes to 19.5 percent.

Let us start by removing the estimated 12 million mestizo illegal
aliens. They are worthless and a negative element in our society.
