I know that is my thought as I prepare my tax return and read articles like this.
Tax Day is a dreaded deadline for millions, but for nearly half of U.S. households it's simply somebody else's problem.About 47 percent will pay no federal income taxes at all for 2009. Either their incomes were too low, or they qualified for enough credits, deductions and exemptions to eliminate their liability. That's according to projections by the Tax Policy Center, a Washington research organization.
Not only that, but some folks actually make a profit on their tax returns, getting refunds for tax credits! I wonder – how many of these people who are paying no taxes (or less than that!) would be so hot for ObamaCare and other federal giveaway programs if it meant that they had to start contributing to cover the cost of those programs?
