Who's not paying federal income tax?
Lower middle class don't pay federal income tax. I think it would be more troublesome to find out that 83% of our Americans make less than 30k a year...
Perhaps you did not properly read what I said: "First off, almost HALF of the 'taxable' people in the USA, pay zero federal income taxes."
Thus your link verifies what I said.
And believe me, you can make a good bit more than 30K and still pay no federal income taxes. The tax code is so insane, there are all sorts of loopholes, and deductions. But you only addressed one little point of what was said.
Do you yet understand that the very rich are paying at a different rate for a reason? Do you yet understand that as far as 'wage earners' go, the more you make the higher the rate?
