Oh, and, by the way, you stupid fucking Republican, I plugged in #1's presumed wages into the IRS's own EITC calculator and got this:<br />
<br />
<blockquote>Based on the information you provided, you are not eligible to claim the Earned Income Tax Credit because... <br />
The total of your earned income amount must be less than $13,660 for 2011<br />
The total of your adjusted gross income amount must be less than $13,660 for 2011</blockquote><br />
<br />
It's *gross* adjusted income, you stupid fuck.<br />

P.S.  Fuck off.

Anyone working for minimum wage is NOT a moocher. They are working - they are producing. Just because they aren't paying federal income tax doesn't make them moochers. <br>
God, I hate this moocher/producer divide. <br>
A person can work hard most of  their life and pay taxes, but if they get sick or old enough to  need assistance, they are then labeled a moocher?<br>

From the IRS:<br>
<br>
-Single or married people who worked full time or part time at some point in 2011 can qualify for the EITC/EIC.<br>
<br>
-Workers who were not raising children in their home and had income below $13,660 ($18,740 for married workers) can get an EITC/EIC of up to $464.<br>

-she's making $18,928 per year<br>
<br>
-Standard deduction for single person for 2012: $5,950<br>

Her taxable income: $12,978<br>

Ergo she pays no Federal income tax. <br>

The minimum wage in Washington state is $9.04/hour.  Even if #1 is making $9.10/hour, she's making $18,928 per year.  If she's taking no deductions other than the standard deduction and the single person exemption, she's paying $942/year in federal income taxes, not including FICA.  And, by the way, you stupid Republican, only families with children are qualified for the Earned Income Tax Credit.<br />

      <![CDATA[I'm an Obama voter who sleeps until noon and beyond. I work the night shift full time at a hotel just off I-5 (slightly above minimum wage, zero benefits, unless one counts free access to the breakfast buffet and all the coffee I can drink). It's a ~classy establishment~ where I feel ~totally safe~ as a woman alone at night, but needs must, amirite? I pay my taxes, pay my own way, and I'm not looking for handouts. Those mouth-breathers on the Right can suck it.
