While the middle class struggles to fulfill its tax obligations,
60 percent of corporations pay no taxes at all.
At a time of rising corporate profits, the GAO reports that
95 percent of corporations paid less than 5 percent of their income
in taxes, and 6 in 10 paid nothing at all in federal taxes from 1996
through 2000.
With corporate tax dodging at a record high, and the percentage of federal tax
revenue from corporations approaching record lows, middle class Americans
should expect to pick up more of the tab from the Bush administration's skewed
tax agenda.
