Once you=retard if some guy is only coming come with $250 he's not coming home with $167.50 now. Since when is a poor guy getting taxed 50%. If a guy is going to come home with $250 if you get rid of the income tax( and I'm assuming the FICA tax ) then that mens he's making $6.25 and hour. Ok first of all minimum wage is $6.55 and it's going up to $7.25 next July. $7.25 X 40 hours is $290 a week. No if you get rid of Income and FICA taxes obviously the guy brings home all $290. The way things are now even if he's single and has no dependants he's bringing home $245. He's still better off now than having a 23% national sales tax.
