It doesn't say but it sure seems like they are only looking at income tax, and they are only looking at the rate paid on the last dollar of income and ignoring the rate paid on all income. As has already been pointed out in this thread there is a lot more that affects how much people pay in taxes than just the national income tax. Those factors add up to making this article pretty much useless.
