So the poorest 20% finally pay taxes? Cool

But in all seriousness that would mean the average family in the bottom 20% pays close to $13k year in taxes. The poverty line is only about 10k above that. I know you got it from Yahoo, but next time number crunch and ask yourself if the number makes sense. Again, stop being a Yes man and learn to think for yourself.

Um you do know the difference between state and federal, right? In a state where there's sales tax, everyone pays taxes.

See the bold above, how in the funk do you get that math? You don't take $197 and divide by .015. While it's not worded right, they mean their effective rate is 1.5% higher. So yes I will think for myself.

Regardless of the exact numbers, you can see when they cut taxes on the wealthy, then increase the sales tax and cigarette tax, that's a structure that's very favorable to the wealthy.

I am all for a cigarette tax. If these people want suck Medicare dry by their medical costs at least they can pay for some of it. I don't work my ass off so Leroy's worthless unemployed ass can set on his ass and smoke his camal menthols and then suck more money out of me later, when I have to pay for his lung cancer treatment. Only in your messed up world is this considered socially acceptable. Honda's world

Where did I say I want for a cigarette tax?I'm so for that shit and it should go right into the medicare fund. I also think smokers should pay higher insurance costs.

I'm pointing out, that the next effect of the Kansas tax plan, that he calls a tax cut, is a tax increase on the lowest 20% of wage earners and a tax cut on the wealthiest 1%. I'm more wondering in what works does it make sense for billionaires and millionaires to get a tax cut while the poorest people get an increase. In a scenario where everyone is paying taxes because of the sales tax. At the federal level, this is a different matter when many people get a huge income tax payment (it's not a refund when you pay in $500 and get $3,000 back).
