So let me get this straight.

There are 1,470 “millionaires and billionaires” who pay no federal income tax. The Democrats, and some Republicans, claim that they need to start “paying their fair share”.

Then there are another 75,000,000 people who also pay no federal tax and many of them don’t even pay payroll tax as they get it back in EITC.

Frankly, I think it’s about damn time to start taxing those 75,000,000.

And many of those 75 million are in the negative as they get refunds and tax credits and welfare.

No body I now know or have ever known pays no federal taxes. They even tax unemployment payments. I can only assume these no tax people are welfare cheats and food stamp thieves that declare no income thus getting -earned income-refunds. Which bringws to mind the question of how do you get an earned income income when you had no income?
