Thanks to the Pew Research Center we have a good look on how Americans really feel about taxes. Turns out that we think corporations and rich people should pay more and that poor people should pay less. Not a surprise.
Of note from Pew Research:
- Only 45% of Americans like the IRS (shocker!), compared with 48% who don’t.
- A whopping one-third (34%) like or even love doing taxes, according to an April 2013 Pew Research survey. Not surprisingly these guys are gettin’ a refund.
- 53% say they pay about the right amount, kind of a surprise.
