Total tax reciepts dropped from just over 2 TRILLION in 2000 (after 1999) to 1.8 Trillion in 2004. Individual tax receipts are down from just over 1 trillion to 808 billion, or a nearly 20% drop over the last four years. Corporate income taxes are down from 207 billion to 190 billion.

Personal income tax reciepts are estimated to once again exceed 2000's level in 2007, ignoring inflation over those 7 years.
