"What you replied was that 31% of tax filers pay no tax, in other words, get all their withholding back as a refund. To that 31% you have to add all the folks who don't file at all. They, too, pay no income tax. "
You might want to add a whole bunch of millionaires who pay no tax and even Warren Buffet (billionaire) who says he paid at a rate of 17%,,,,,,,probably less than you paid.
All I can say to you is this......get used to it. Universal care is coming and coming soon.....America will join the rest of the civilized world.
BTW, you had no comment about Medicaid being used to support med students, the handicapped, nursing homes, hospitals, clinics, and more..... no poor people included in these groups. Every governor in the country is pissed at the Bush plans to cut Medicaid payments to the states. |
