Before this pull request the self-employment tax was incorrectly included in both the payroll tax total and the income tax total. This pull request removes the self-employment tax from the income tax total, leaving it in the payroll tax total. As a result of this bug fix, aggregate income tax revenue for 2013 declines by about $44.7 billion, which is a decline of about 3.6 percent. And there are also changes in the marginal tax rate histograms for the e00200p and e00900p variables.
