Now show the graph with the earned income tax credit included to see whether the total net federal tax (income tax + payroll tax - EITC) is zero or negative. That would chew into the 28% who don't pay income tax but do pay a payroll tax.

When we’re talking about a payroll tax, aren’t we really talking about social security, medicare, and state disability insurance?

We all know they’re going to get back every cent they pay in normal payroll taxes, plus the earned income credit you mentioned.

I’m sick and tired of the Left acting as if these people are taxed unfairly. Bull s—t!
