Per parent comment, those people do contribute to federal spending through payroll and other taxes, even if income taxes make up the largest proportion of revenues.

The fact that you took it that way is evidence of how the original comment is misleading to many people.



I’m not sure how the person took it. I agree the fact that it is taken in some way and I’m not sure which way, is indicative of the misleading quality of the original comment and the comment saying 43% pay no payroll tax (which is only true during the two stimulus years)
