1.5%

5. What kind

of math is that?

If it is 1.5% of spending, and that equates to $36 dollars per person, then this math means that people only pay around $2,400 annually in federal taxes.

Google:
"On average, U.S. taxpayers paid approximately $13,890 annually for federal income taxes in 2022, the latest year for which complete data is available. This figure reflects an average tax rate of 14.5% across all tax filings"

I smell BS
