The so called earned income tax credit gives a yearly welfare check to people that contribute nothing.
Time to end a waste of tax dollars.

    Yes yes yes.

    It will never ever happen though. Has broad support amongst both parties.

    Frankly, I would eliminate all tax credits.

    I can almost understand low income people not paying any taxes. But I never will understand people getting a "refund" for far, far more than they ever paid in.

    Several years ago I did the income tax for the daughter of a friend.
    She is unmarried and has one child. She paid in about 1300 and got a refund of almost 8000.
