That NYTimes article was obviously very left of center oriented, but it doesn't change the fact that the number of wage-earners not having a Federal INCOME tax liability at all, was 47%. It doesn't mean they didn't pay taxes at all, they just did not have to pay an income tax on what they earned.
I'm sorry, but that's disturbing to me. A dollar is a dollar, regardless of who you are. It should be treated equally across the board.
That kind of thinking however, doesn't garner votes, so it will never happen. TAX THE OTHER GUY!!!! YEAH, THE ONE WITH LOTS OF MONEY!!! We want all the benefits we can get, but fuck em... we don't want to contribute in an equal way.
