There are places you can get blood, and then there are turnips...

Just don't be a turnip, and you'll be fine.

i mean unless we're talking about super homeless people, there are no turnips in America

the bigger issue is the number of people with negative tax rates

I have never been more pissed off with taxes then I am this year. It is really frustrating the amount of taxes I pay and people just get my money for being a lazy fat arse on welfare for example.

If you live in this country you should have to pay some sort or tax other then sales tax. It really isn't fair for those that work that have to pay so much, yet some don't pay shite.

I wish that I was one of them. 52 million people not paying a single dime whilst the rest of us foot the bill is absurd.

If you had a national sales tax, but some people didn't buy anything, would you insist they pay a little sales tax on nothing?

This board complains about 30+ year olds who don't want health insurance paying a tax, but apparently some would like people to pay a literal living tax.

Of those 52 Million, how many are on assistance? Not only do they not pay, they are net takers. they cannot pull their own weight. Mostly just leeches on their fellow countrymen.

Probably a lot of them. There would be some stuck in the area where they don't have a tax liability but they make too much to receive "assistance" but my guess is that a majority of them get welfare in some form.

if you are living in this country then you need to pay a little something. Don't just sponge off the rest of us that are paying something

I don't know. But,
quote:

Among these 52,062,499 filers who did not pay income taxes in 2014, according to Table 3.3 in the report, were 31,129,405 filers who also received $90,276,007,000 in payments from the federal government for “refundable” tax credits.


So 31 million got paid for not paying Fed income tax.

Most of those people also get EITC for thousands of dollars.
