Americans Are More Skeptical Than Ever About Fairness of Tax System
Americans remain unhappy with the tax system in this country and believe more strongly than ever that others do not pay their fair share.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that just 12% of American Adults think the United States has the best tax system in the world. Sixty-one percent (61%) disagree, and another 27% are not sure. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
