Thousands of people who don't pay taxes won't get a tax cut!! Call a lawyer!

I never understood the idea of a refundable tax credit allowing someone to effectively pay negative taxes. Under the Federal income tax system in place now they are paying $0 in Federal income taxes. They should be overjoyed, instead of whining.

It would be nice it that were true. Actually, with the earned income tax credit, many people pay negative taxes. They want their negative taxes (refund)to be increased by $400 per child.

Many of these folks are probably already getting an Earned Income Tax Credit. The libs are just looking for another way to provide more welfare using the income tax system. Welfare disbursement through the tax system is sooooooo wrong!
