Half of the US pays $0 in federal taxes.
- thanhhaimai 6y agoExactly! There are around 155m people working. Half of them pays $0 in tax. That means ~77m people who pay positive tax now has to pay for that $22b contract. That $70 now has become $285. The math looks even worse. The idea that some unjustified spending is OK just because it's "cheap" per capital is an absurd idea.
