Somebody wanted to know the IRS Collections...

[whistle]

...by type of revenues and how balanced these are between Individual and Corporate taxes. Well heres a history from 1973 to 2003. There are more revenues sources than just those two categories, but I show the republican era and then the demoratic era. Judge for yourselves the balance (oops I hope it lines up in the DU page):

well here's a snap shot

1973 16.4% 52.6% 21.9% 1.8% 0.3% 7.0%
