people who make $1 million or more had an average tax rate of 20.4 percent;
those who made between $50,000 and $100,000 paid 7.7 percent;
those who earned $30,000 to $50,000 paid an average rate of 4.8 percent;
those making under $30,000 had a negative effective rate, meaning they paid no federal income taxes after deductions and credits.
Put another way, millionaires pay a rate that’s more than four times that of the middle class.
