stopped reading at "increase earned income tax credit." i believe in social programs but i stop at people MAKING money off their tax returns. nope. biggest scam ever. EVERYONE pays some percent. even if its a small percentage, you should be forced to contribute SOMETHING.
Everyone contributes something. Why do people so consistently fall for the canard that poor people don't pay taxes just because they don't pay income taxes? There are many other kids of taxes that they most certainly pay.
So with that in mind, you will be happy to hear that the poor do pay a small percentage, and are forced to contribute something.
