I don't see any surprise here. Too bad we don't have the last 4 years of data or the corresponding net after taxes income to look at. The top few percent represent nearly all of the tax revenue and as a percentage of their revenues pay a multiple more. Furthermore, who would be surprised that America's most prosperous families would continue to see income growth with the kinds of numbers they represent - it's hard to stop a freight train from coming into town, clearly the wealthiest have substantial buying opportunities in a down economy.
