the top 1 percent paid 39.9 percent of all federal income taxes..

The greatest share but not a majority. (I thought it was under 33% -a third of the total, but I wont quibble with the tax foundation)
And the income for the top 1 percent consistently increases on an annual basis at a greater rate than any other income bracket.

pre-tax income for the top 1 percent of tax returns grew by 34 percent, while pre-tax income for the bottom 50 percent increased by 22 percent.
