He says families making lower incomes would pay no taxes that’s fine, no problem with that. What I’d like to know is will they get a big check from the government, even though they’ve paid no taxes (by using EIC, etc..)
Giving folks money on tax day, when they paid no taxes, just seems wrong on so many levels.
I believe this would be great to be combined with elimination of the EIC, as there’s no disincentive to earn up to $50,000 due to income taxes overhead.
It is also synergistic with reduction in all welfare benefits, and when further coupled with kicking illegals out, it could do wonders.
I like the idea of forcing everyone to file taxes, even if they default to no tax or 1% tax for everyone. And welfare benefits need to start being counted as income. It’s a benefit and not a donation.
