Tuesday September 19th, 2006 / 0h04
WASHINGTON -(Dow Jones)- The U.S. government recorded record-high overall and corporate tax receipts on Sept. 15, which was a quarterly deadline for tax payments, the Treasury said Monday.
Total tax receipts were $85.8 billion on Friday, compared with the previous one-day record of $71 billion on Sept. 15 of last year, the Treasury said.
Within the overall figure, corporate tax receipts Friday were $71.8 billion, up from $63 billion in September of last year.
Treasury Undersecretary for Domestic Finance Randal Quarles said Friday's numbers provided a "continuing demonstration of the strength of the U.S. economy."
"In fact, Friday's gross receipts were the largest in a single day in the nation's history - 20% higher than receipts on the same quarterly tax payment date last year," Quarles said in a statement.

what he said...no income tax in TN so even the poor have to pay! I still think we could tax poverty out of existence if we worked at it hard enough!

Poor corps being taxed. :cry: This is quarterly projected payments. NOT after they get all of the depreciation and writeoffs. The American public pays the bulk of the US treasury reciepts as noted here. still getting bent over (http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/la-na-deficit9jul09,1,5735320.story?coll=la-headlines-nation)
"Individual tax payments, which make up the bulk of the government's tax revenue, total an estimated $791 billion so far this year, up about 14.1%, the Congressional Budget Office said."
Corporate figures also incude profits realized from overseas production which means less US jobs.
I don't know why, but neither side of this coin makes me feel any better.

corporations don't pay taxes...they simply pass them along to the consumer.
