First off, a few notes, if you look at the lines, the tax revenues have fallen actually down to about 2000 levels, not to mention, those are not adjusted for changes in GDP, nor for changes i nthe wealth levels of the rich, you argue that the rich are paying more of the portion of the taxes, the problem is, it has not kept pace with the changes in their wealth, they hav gained wealth faster than they have increased any percentage of the total taxes paid, if tax rates were returned to Clinto levels, they would bepaying more and the tax revenue generated would be higher.
