when the figures today show that the top 0.5% of earner actually pay a third of all tax collected.
I have seen many posters here immediate jump to the assumption that the rich don't actually pay tax in debates about taxation or about government cuts.
AIBU to think that people who claim the rich don't pay enough or that many of them evade tax are actually talking about a tiny percentage of top earners and that the vast vast majority of top earner pay their share.
