Just under 50%. I found data for fiscal years 1962, 1982 and 2002 here (http://www.gao.gov/atext/strobj34.txt). In 2002, 48% of gov't revenue came from individual income taxes... here are the tables for '02, '82, '62... Fiscal Year 2002. Item 1, Individual Income Taxes 48%. Item 2, Corporation Income Taxes 10%. Item 3, Social Insurance 35%. Item 4, Excise Tax and Other 7%. Fiscal Year 1982. Item 1, Individual Income Taxes 48%. Item 2, Corporation Income Taxes 8%. Item 3, Social Insurance 33%. Item 4, Excise Tax and Other 11%. Fiscal Year 1962. Item 1, Individual Income Taxes 45%. Item 2, Corporation Income Taxes 21%. Item 3, Social Insurance 17%.
