Correct. Sort of. That would be redistribution of wealth.
However, she (like anyone else) would directly benefit from the public services paid for by taxes, in any case.
But that isn't the issue here. If we're talking about tax REBATES, how could you possibly REBATE the money to people who don't pay it in the first place?
So yes, someone who doesn't pay actual dollars in taxes shouldn't get actual dollars back when taxpayers are given a rebate on the actual money they paid.
However, like I said before, I'll deal with it if it means that real people get money instead of the federal government. |
See the problem is that this is being termed a "tax rebate." I never had a problem for people who do not
earn enough to warrant payment of taxes getting money. It's the obese a$$hole who is on SSI because he is too fat to work. It's the yagoff that was shot 6 times while he was a lookout for a dope spot. It's the gal who smokes rock and has 8 kids who gets WIC and public aid, that, I have a problem with getting a "tax rebate."
