People are always saying that the poor get back thousands of dollars more than they paid in because of things like the EIC and such but I've never seen one sample tax return here or anywhere else that shows a person paying a negative tax rate (ie not just paying $0, but paying $0 and still getting a 'refund')
Unless someone can back that shit up it needs to stop. We have enough people talking out their collective asses and we don't need it anymore. Someone here was going to do so on another thread but never replied. I wonder why....
I'm also sick of people inserting the word 'fair' into taxation arguements. Life isn't fair. Just as it's not 'fair' that a millionaire pays a higher percentage than everyone else it isn't 'fair' that for every millionaire that works his ass off there are hundreds of people who got an education, work long hours, and still find themselves below the poverty line.
