Do YOU pay taxes? Almost 1/2 of US households pay NONE!

Do you pay taxes? What do you think about having to pay while others pay not at all? What do you think about the uses to which your taxes are put? Vent if you like! : )

WASHINGTON (AP)—Tax Day is a dreaded deadline for millions, but for nearly half of U.S. households it’s simply somebody else’s problem.

About 47 percent will pay no federal income taxes at all for 2009. Either their incomes were too low, or they qualified for enough credits, deductions and exemptions to eliminate their liability. That’s according to projections by the Tax Policy Center, a Washington research organization.
