I think this is not true in many cases. Sales tax can be avoided by choosing not to buy anything. Food isn't taxed. That leaves housing (property tax) and energy which can be brought to a pretty low % of income. But it would be GREAT to see how much tax we actually pay!

Add up federal income tax, social security tax, Medicare tax, state income tax, unemployment tax, sales taxes, property taxes, gas taxes, utility taxes, travel taxes, capital gains taxes, on and on, and the total tax burden is well in excess of 60% for even the middle class.

74% last I heard.
