8. She is obviously Wealthy
I am a tiny business person, trying to survive. I pay more in Federal Taxes, as a percentage of my income than the wealthy do. Also I pay 14.5 % for Workman's Compensation and General Liability. The Wealthy do not pay as much of a share of their income in Federal Taxes that the lower end Business People do. We pay more. I pay app. 37% of my income in Federal Taxes. I read somewhere that the Rich pay an average of 22%. The Rich are filled with a bunch of liers. They are not paying their fair share.
