48% think they're paying the right amount in taxes

That surprises me. I'd have been among the 46% who feel that our taxes are too high. Though, that doesn't mean I think they should be cut. You can think your taxes are too high, but be resigned to the fact that taxes are a necessary evil - even if they sting.

The new survey purports that a plurality of Americans (48%) think they're paying just about the right amount in taxes. Traditionally in American society, just the right amount in taxes is zero.

But now taxpayers are like Goldilocks on her third bowl of borrowed bear porridge. It's just right.

A slightly smaller group that apparently drinks bottled water (46%) thinks taxes are too high.
What do you think? Take our poll in the top of the next column to the right.
