I am not arguing the EITC at all.
I am saying that any program that reduces taxes will not really benefit people who don't pay taxes or pay very little.
Long run, yes. Short term, in their paychecks, no.

It is a debatable point, but yes it does matter who spends the money (IMO). I use the multiplier effect as my back-up on this.
