As of last year half of all Americans. A whopping 47% if you want an exact figure, were unable to qualify for income taxes because the masses are that poor now. Free trade has taken all the well paying jobs away and the few to have replaced them are service jobs that don't pay a decent wage. If they only care about tax payers, nearly half the country is SOL. The more the middle class disappears the fewer tax payers there are going to be left. Forget about the entitlements and top tax bracket that our politicians talk about to distract people: what broke the budget [federally and on the state level] was the loss of jobs & manufacturing.

Let's not kid ourselves. The special interests and multinationals are the ones that our politicians work for; and they know it.
