Those are not people.

That's only federal income tax.

There are sales taxes, property taxes, state income taxes, hotel taxes, sin taxes (tobacco, booze) etc. Everyone does pay taxes.

Half of those households have no income to tax.

But I thought everyone has to pay their "fair share"?

Misleading headline. Income taxes not = to all taxes. Many millionaires and billionaires wont pay any "income tax" either, for instance, if all of their revenue is generated thru capital gains, which are taxed at a much lower and more favorable rate than the highest income tax bracket. People that are still employed but that don't make enough money to pay any income tax?? Drop in the bucket. But yea let's go after them. They're living high on the hog allright. Fucking brain rot.
