We put together this chart a few weeks ago to show how Romney’s effective federal tax rate compares to the average rate of other income brackets. (Keep in mind that was when Romney was saying he paid close to a 15 percent rate, so we used that number; today’s release shows that his 2011 rate was 14.1 percent.)
