Add two kids, and you don't really pay anything.
Then again, if you make enough to not qualify for any stimulus, and you pay a lot in taxes, you're doing it wrong. A couple more years and that's where we will fall, but still won't pay much due to non standard deductions.

What kind of deductions are you taking?

We have a kid, make a little more than that and paid something like 16k in federal taxes last year.

That’s still going to be ~$10-12k

Me and the wife brought in $142,000 combined, and paid $17,000 in taxes (I had to pay $942 after filing). We have two kids. That’s almost $18,000. I would hardly call that “nothing”. Then again, maybe you’re a millionaire and $18,000 is a joke to you.
As far as deductions, good luck coming up with more than $24,000 to file non standard deductions.
