[27 June 1984]

     Here is some information derived from tax returns for 1982:

Total Income Tax Liability = $276.9 billion

Income percentile		% of Tax Liability	Per Person Liability
--------------------		------------------	--------------------
lowest 50%				7			$   390
50-75 %         			20			$ 2 224
75-98.6 %				51			$ 5 987
highest 1.4%				22			$43 214
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Make of this what you will.  Figures are approximate (they are still
collecting and auditing, etc. 1982 returns.)
