I saw these stats the other day and they were eye opening. If anyone thinks bailout plans and social programs will empower the world just looks at who actually FUNDS it all.

*The top 1% of American taxpayers pay 40% of the income taxes.

*The top 5% of taxpayers pay over 60% of the taxes.

*The top 10% of taxpayers pay over 70% of the taxes.

*The top 25% of taxpayers pay over 90% of the taxes.

*Even more mindboggling, the top 1% of taxpayers pay more taxes than the bottom 95% combined.

* In New York City, America’s financial capital, 40,000 taxpayers pay virtually 100% of the income taxes for a city of 8 million people.

This is why I encourage everyone to become an entrepreneur. Not only will you save yourself but you are the fuel on which all successful countries run.

To the courageous entrepreneur,
