Original Note:
The 8% tax rate claim made here does not represent the true actual rate based on current tax laws. It's comparing what was paid in income taxes with what might be paid with a theoretical wealth tax on unsold stock (unrealized gains). It is intentionally misleading. https://www.whitehouse.gov/cea/written-materials/2021/09/23/what-is-the-average-federal-individual-income-tax-rate-on-the-wealthiest-americans/
