What percentage of wage earners do not pay taxes in the US?

It is important to note that the 47% do not pay Federal Income tax. They still pay pay any applicable city or state income taxes! They still pay the 7.65% combined Social security and Medicare taxes! They still pay real estate taxes, directly or via their rent payments in all localities that have real-estate taxes, which is probably everywhere in the U.S.! They still pay sales taxes on their retail purchases, which is proportionally higher for lower income people than it is for higher income people, since they spend a higher percentage of their income at retail! If one ignores the charitable giving of the wealthy, then some of the 47% actually contribute more financially to society than some of the wealthy do!
