ROFLMAO!! Kenneth you are very upset and you are acting foolish. There is no such thing as "earned income credit" as you put it. At least the meaning of the phrase is definitely deceptive. It is an extended welfare payment that people get while working. When people don't pay taxes they have no investment in the country. They only take from the system. It robs the incentive to do better, the incentive to improve their lot.

I believe there should be a flat tax on all income. We need a real revision of tax policies in this country. We need an end to Federal interference in business with subsidies for various businesses, including farming. The waste is incredible. We should not subsidize a business for the purpose of "steering" the use or reduction of the use of any product or type of product. We are broke or near broke kenneth. Government engineering is never done properly and I don't believe the government has the right to be involved in such things. It all ends up being cash cows for politicians, their interests and their friends.

Are their no programs you would dismantle? I don't want YOU spending my money, no matter how much or little I make.
