A new study finds that America’s billionaires paid an average effective tax rate of 24% between 2018 and 2020. That compares with an effective rate of about 30% for other taxpayers.

Why the difference?
▪️Much of billionaire wealth comes from stocks, businesses, and real estate, which are taxed differently from wages.
▪️Capital gains and corporate profits are often subject to lower rates than earned income.
▪️Some wealth isn’t taxed until it’s sold, which means large unrealized gains can go untouched.

The findings have reignited debate over how taxes are distributed across income levels—and what fairness looks like in practice.
