John Peasant's Huge Minimum Wage Tax Bill in 2008

[Aakron]

Given the $6,07.75 tax bill on the $15,828 in income, John Peasant paid a 40% TAX RATE on his minimum wage income in 2008 after additional debts. I regularly see studies that claim tax rates on the poor are 5%. Such nonsensical and frankly harmful lies are due to lack of research.

Minimum wage earners are paying a 40% tax rate after "hidden taxes". WOW.
