You really think income tax from millionaires makes up a large portion of our state tax?

I would say that income tax makes up the largest source to the PA budget and millionaires pay a significant portion of that source. So yes.

Ooof I admire your optimism that money actually comes from millionaires and not the working class.

I’m just looking at the official PA budget on the treasury website. Give it a try. Unless you think those numbers are falsified.

Might wanna check your source and be sure to click the revenue tab at the top. Individual estimated tax payments is literally the 4th biggest source of revenue for taxes. But you think millionaires pay their fair share in taxes, I’m not surprised you can’t do proper research.

Yikes! Shots fired. I wish I was as pompous as you.

Hey… what is “withholding” anyway? Hmm. Look at page 2.

I’ve already wasted enough time arguing with someone who supports millionaires. That’s my fault.
