apparently people who have no income should pay taxes from non-existent income

that might be a new provision in the GOP TaxScam bill, once they decipher all the scriblings

What about the 50% that pay no taxes. Shouldn't they pay their 'fair share'?

Some 35 million of those bottom 50% got EITC -- a refundable credit for taxes they never paid in. AKA "FREE MONEY" paid for by the rest of us.

One of the huge problems with discussing taxation is that easily 99% are totally ignorant of the subject.
