Keep it real. If it was a weekly check, that amounts to $4160. per year. He gets it ALL back, plus additonal money. At $5.15 an hour, he only worked 15.5 hours. It ain't easy out there for some people, but if he's able-bodied, you might suggest a second job. If he isn't, then he gets food stamps, welfare, Section 8, and is probably qualified for other programs. C’mon Saudia. Keep it real.

Are you mad. I see client's on a part time basis and require them to bring in check stubs to show progress. I had a client bring me a check the other day for $80. And yes taxes had been taken out. He does not have dependants and does not own a home so he will not be getting it back at the end of the year. Poor people don't pay taxes. HUH This is America everyone pays taxes.

Under a flat tax, unless a minimum income was included, would charge the poor income tax. The poorest of the poor don’t pay taxes now.

Finally, a group of black folks willing to talk money. The IRS is a joke. All you have to do is know the rights codes and the right policy and you can get away with anything. Unfortunately, the masses don't know how to keep their income in their pocket. A flat tax would solve a lot of problems. It would also prevent the poorest of the poor to bare the brunt of the taxes in this country. Sign me up. I have my flat tax money together. Hooray hooray.
